Methylglyoxal (MGO) is a reactive dicarbonyl produced as by-product of glycolysis, and its formation is heightened in hyperglycaemia. MGO plasma levels are two-fold to five-fold increased in diabetics and its accumulation promotes the progression of vascular complications. Impairment of endothelium-derived
