The different roles for the advanced glycation end products axis in heart failure and acute coronary syndrome settings

ConclusionsA different role for the AGE-RAGE axis was observed in HF and ACS. All the sRAGE forms were directly related with glycation parameters in HF, but not in ACS. The independent value of the sRAGE forms on each cardiovascular disease was supported by esRAGE being an independent predictor of bad long-term prognosis only for HF.
