Plagiarism

I've removed the plagiarism note from the page for two reasons-

  • There was no clearer and/or shorter way to state the same information, and so the wording would be the same.
  • Its been included as a reference and as such I don't think there should be a problem with keeping the info in.

Assessment comment The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Pentosidine/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following
several discussions in past years
, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Good so far:
  • Several reasonable references, well formatted
  • Chembox

Still need:

  • First characterization, proof of structure
  • Diagram in chembox
  • Photo of pentosidine in cells (saw several at =en&q=pentosidine&btnG=Search+Images&gbv=2 Google images).
  • Diagram of the formation of pentosidine from sugars, proteins, ROS.
  • Much more text about pentosidine as a marker for AGE, especially in diabetes.
    • Is it a factor in other plaque disease, like Alzheimers and atherosclerosis?
    • Pentosidine is a marker for elevated glucose, as is A1c. But they pentosidine is more sensitive to oxidation. Discuss relation to ROS
  • Detail on how pentosidine is assayed.
    • Since its a fluorescent compound, a spectrum would be nice.
  • How pentosidine (and other AGE) are cleared from the body.
