The formation of the reactiveα,β-dicarbonyl metabolite, methylglyoxal, is increased during hyperglycaemia associated with diabetes mellitus. Methylglyoxal is metabolised to S-D-lactoylglutathione and D-lactate by the glyoxalase system and to hydroxyacetone (95%) and D-lactaldehyde by aldose reductase. Methylglyoxal and hydroxyacetone bind and
