(a) Glo1 protein levels measured via Western blot were significantly reduced in the kidney (p = 0.0096), whereas protein levels in the heart (p = 0.27) and the liver (p = 0.34) did not differ significantly. (b) Glo1 activity was significantly reduced in the heart (p = 0.001), kidney (p = 0.03), and liver (p = 0.03) of Glo1^KD mice in comparison to wild-type animals (n = 4). Glo1 activity in the liver of wild-type mice was arbitrarily set to 100%. (c) The levels of methylglyoxal-derived AGEs were measured via an ELISA. There was no significant impact of the Glo1 knockdown on the methylglyoxal-derived AGEs in extracts of heart, kidney, and liver (p ≥ 0.05).
