Abstract

The invention relates to methods of inhibiting the protein glycation process and the associated formation of Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) in hyperglycemia by administering 6-Nitrobenzimidazole derivatives. These derivatives were found to be effective not merely against the formation of AGE, but they can inhibit the action of AGEs at post-receptor levels.
