Retracted: Advanced glycation end-products induce oxidative stress through the Sirt1/Nrf2 axis by interacting with the receptor of AGEs under diabetic conditions.

Despite the administration of exogenous insulin and other medications used to control many aspects of diabetes mellitus (DM), increased oxidative stress has been increasingly acknowledged in DM development and complications. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the role of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in oxidative stress (OS) of thyroid cells in patients with DM. Patients with DM with or without thyroid dysfunction (TD) were enrolled.

Receptor for advanced glycation end products reveals a mechanism regulating thyroid hormone secretion through the SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway.

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) play a causative role in the complications involved with diabetes mellitus (DM). Nowadays, DM with hypothyroidism (DM-hypothyroidism) is indicative of an ascended tendency in the combined morbidity. In this study, we examine the role of the receptor (RAGE) played for AGEs in thyroid hormone (TH) secretion via the silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1)/nuclear factor erythroid-derived factor 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway.
