Chemical Structure
Glyoxal (40% w/w in water)
- CAS. Nr.: 107-22-2
- Formula:C2H2O2
- Molecular Weight:58.04
IUPAC Name: oxalaldehyde
InChIKey: LEQAOMBKQFMDFZ-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=CC=O
Biological Activity: Glyoxal (40% w/w in water) is an α-oxoaldehyde that inhibits Aldose Reductase, Glutathione Reductase, and NADPH synthase. Glyoxal (40% w/w in water) exhibits cytotoxicity, triggers oxidative stress, induces ROS accumulation, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial membrane potential collapse, DNA damage, apoptosis, and massive production of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Glyoxal (40% w/w in water) depletes glutathione and activates MAPK phosphorylation. It has lower toxicity as a fixative than paraformaldehyde (PFA) and serves as a precursor for the synthesis of oxalates and dietary carcinogens. Glyoxal (40% w/w in water) is suitable for research related to calcium oxalate kidney stones, diabetes, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, retinopathy, and cataracts[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].
