Abstract:
Compositions are disclosed which have as a component thereof an inhibitor of the enzymatic production of 3-deoxyglucosone (3DG) from fructoselysine and/or an inactivator of 3DG, and which are useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of a condition or disease state that is alleviated by inhibiting such 3DG production. Methods of using such compositions, e.g., for improving the appearance, texture and/or elasticity of aging skin, are also disclosed.
