## Abstract Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) are an heterogenous class of compounds formed by diverse stimuli, including hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, inflammation, renal failure, and innate aging. Recent evidence suggests that dietary sources of AGE may contribute to pathology. AGEs impart
## Abstract Binding of ligands to the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE) results in activation of the proinflammatory transcription factor nuclear factorβkappaB (NFβΞΊB) and subsequent expression of NFβΞΊBβregulated cytokines. In order to determine whether engagement of RAGE contribut
