Abstract: The present intervention identifies the antiglycating inhibitors from a series of carbazole-linked 1,2,3 triazole derivatives through in vitro MGO-mediated glycating BSA model. Derivatives 12, and 13 established a remarkable antiglycation activity at the receptor level in human monocytes. These compounds were found non-toxic, and possess the potential to halt AGE-RAGE/ROS-mediated NF-kB-dependent COX-2, and its proinflammatory product, PGE2, production in monocytes. Hence, carbazole-linked 1,2,3 triazole derivatives provide treatment modalities to delay or prevent the onset of late diabetic micro- and macro-vascular complications in diabetic patients.
