Under hyperglycaemic conditions, crystallins become susceptible to glycation that ultimately leads to advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) formation.

However, this drug has not been thoroughly investigated for its impact on α-CR glycation. In this study, we explored glipizide's protective role against glucose-induced α-CR glycation.
