In addition to investigating the effects of AGEs, recent studies have also addressed the effects of MG on many chronic diseases and aging-related diseases in clinical practice [7]. The MG concentration in the blood of DM pa- tients is reported to be significantly higher than that in non- DM patients, reaching 400mM [8]. Additionally, endogenous MG is produced in the bodies of organisms. Under patho- logical conditions, an even higher concentration of MG will be accumulated in the body, which might be associated with the imbalance of the antiglycation system, known as the glyoxalase system [9]. Therefore, the accumulation of RCS, such as MG, in organisms and the associated metabolic imbalance will result in the development of many human diseases. Recently, antiglycation has been considered as an effective strategy to slow down human aging and disease development. The inhibition of glycation can suppress inflammasome acti- vation to reduce the development of inflammatory reactions [3,10]. The antioxidant and anti-inflammation abilities of polyphenol substances have been extensively studied, and their antiglycation functions have been screened in many e in vitro experimental platforms. The results show that poly- Figure 1 Pathway for AGE formation.

It involves many steps, and the reaction usually requires several 2.3. Advanced phase days or even several weeks to complete (Figure 1). The advanced phase is the last phase of the Maillard reaction. 2.1. Initial phase In the advanced phase, dicarbonyl compounds form isomers with the arginine and lysine residues of proteins, called AGEs. In the initial phase of the Maillard reaction, reducing sugars, They are characterized by thermal stability. The major AGEs such as glucose, fructose, or ribose, will act on the terminal are classified into 3 groups: (1) fluorescent crosslinking AGEs, amino groups of proteins, nucleic acids, or phospholipids to such as crossline and pentosidine; (2) nonfluorescent cross- form unstable Schiff bases, which will further become more linking AGEs, such as imidazolium dilysine crosslinks; and (3) stable keto-amines, also called Amadori products, after rear- nonfluorescent non-crosslinking AGEs, such as rangement.
