Large randomized studies in diabetes have established that early intensive glycemic control reduces the risk of diabetic microvascular complications, with less impact on macrovascular complications 1, 2. In type 2 diabetic patients, further intensive therapy to target normal glycated hemoglobin levels also failed to reduce mortality and major cardiovascular events 3, 4, while it may be rather harmful 5. However, follow-up data of these trials reveal a longterm influence of early metabolic control on longer cardiovascular outcomes, even though the influence on glycemic control has been immediately disappeared after the trials 6, 7. This phenomenon has recently been defined as "metabolic memory". In at-risk patients with type 2 diabetes, intensive intervention with multiple drug combinations and behavior modification had similar sustained beneficial effects with respect to vascular complications and on rates of death from any cause and from cardiovascular causes 8. Similarly in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), intensive interventions to the general risk factors, such as high LDL-cholesterol or C-reactive protein, have not been successful in improving their cardiovascular outcomes 9, 10, suggesting that the beneficial effect of risk reduction may be overwhelmed by accumulated “metabolic memory” by long-term exposure to oxidative stress during the progression of renal failure. Potential mechanisms for propagating this "memory" are the non-enzymatic glycation of cellular and tissue proteins which are conceptualized as advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), the generation of which has been implicated to be deeply associated with increased oxidative stress as well as hyperglycemia. AGEs, with their receptor (receptor for AGEs, RAGE), potentially mediate molecular and cellular pathway leading to metabolic memory. Moreover, interaction of the RAGE with AGEs leads to crucial biomedical pathway generating intracellular oxidative stress and inflammatory mediators, which could result in further amplification of the pathway involved in AGE generation. By utilizing genetically engineered mouse models, emerging evidence suggests that AGE/RAGE axis is also found to be profoundly associated with non-diabetic, non-uremic pathophysiological conditions including 1) atherogenesis, 2) angiogenic response, 3) vascular injury, and 4) inflammatory response (see review in 11), many of which are now implicated in metabolic syndrome. Numerous truncated forms of RAGE have also been described, and the
