Research Excerpts

Overview

Glycolaldehyde (GA) is a highly reactive hydroxyaldehyde and one of the glycolytic metabolites producing advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) Its toxicity toward neurons and Schwann cells remains unclear.

Toxicity

Three carbon sugars, such as glyceraldehyde and dihydroxy acetone, and the two carbon sugar glycolaldehyde, were similarly toxic in an O-2-dependent manner. Glycolaldehyde was more toxic to the SOD-null strain than to its S OD-replete parent, and this differential effect was oxygen-dependent.
