Objectives: Enhanced formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formed secondary to hyperglycemic conditions has been linked to diabetes mellitus (DM) associated complications. We investigated the clinical relevance of estimating AGES and their relationship with oxidative stress (OS) and paraoxonase (PON1) activity in type 2 DM (T2DM) in relation to development of vascular complications. Design and Methods: Serum AGEs along with PON1 activity, protein carbonyl (PCO), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), lipid peroxidation (MDA), and total thiol (T-SH) were determined in 157 T2DM patients (DM without complications n = 57, DM micro-vascular complications n=53, DM macro-vascular complications n=47) and 40 healthy controls. Results: Serum AGE level increased significantly in various study groups in following manner: healthy control
