3-deoxyglucosone (3-DG) is accumulated not only in uremic serum but also in uremic erythrocytes. 3-DG rapidly reacts with protein amino groups to form advanced glycation end products (AGEs) such as imidazolone, pyrraline, and N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine, among which imidazolone is the AGE that
