Product distribution after in vivo conversion of methylglyoxal in GLO1−/− Schwann cells is in the favor of lactaldehyde. A, representative chromatogram of intracellular d4 products in wild-type Schwann cells 60 min after the exposure to d4-MG. Chemical structure displays the complex of labeled d4-d-lactate/d4-hydroxyacetone and the derivatizing agent (PFBHA) B, representative chromatogram of intracellular d4 products in GLO1−/− Schwann cells 60 min after the exposure to d4-MG. Chemical structure displays the complex of labeled d4-lactaldehyde/d4-hydroxyacetone and the derivatizing agent (PFBHA) C, product distribution of isotopically labeled intracellular metabolites in percent after the conversion of d4-MG in vivo. Wild-type and GLO1−/− Schwann cells were exposed to isotopically labeled d4-MG (100 μm) for 60 min, and products were analyzed by LC-MS/MS.
