## Abstract Formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in extracellular matrix (ECM) is implicated in the development of chronic diabetic complications. However, the involvement of AGEs in diabetic bone disease has not been well established. We have examined whether AGEs are increased in t

Lipoxygenases (LOXs) form a heterogeneous family of lipid-peroxidizing enzymes, and several LOX-isoforms (12/15-LOX, 5-LOX) have been implicated in atherogenesis. However, the precise role of these enzymes is still a matter of discussion. 12/15-LOXs are capable of oxidizing lipoproteins (low-density
## Abstract The effects of transition metals on nonenzymatic and ceruloplasmin catalyzed epinephrine oxidation were investigated by studying rates of epinephrine oxidation in purified buffers and in the presence of metal chelating agents. We found that epinephrine does not βautoxidizeβ in sodium ch
