Glyoxal

Glyoxal is a cytotoxic α-oxoaldehyde. Glyoxal induces cell damage and promotes protein glycation to form advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) . Glyoxal is promising for research of oxidative stress-related diseases (such as atherosclerosis, cataract, Alzheimer's disease), and the formation of calcium oxalate kidney stones[1][2].
