History of 1,5AGHistory of 1,5AG 1888 1,5AG was discovered in plant of Polygala Senega.
1973 Presence in human body was reported.
1977 Decrease of plasma 1,5AG concentration with uremia and diabetes mellitus was reported.
1979 Blood 1,5AG was determined in Japan.
After this, research on relationship between diabetes mellitus and 1,5AG has become active.
Blood test measuring 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG)
1,5-AG is a monosaccharide (similar to glucose structure)1/40 of glucose concentration – healthy human bloodPrimary Source of 1,5-AG – FoodFurther distributed to skin, muscle, and other tissues/organsReabsorbed very efficiently through kidney (urinary excretion is 1/20 of total amount in body)Large Body Pool of 1,5-AG (6-7 times > Blood)Not metabolized much in the body (metabolic turnaround rate at least 3 days)1,5-AG urinary excretion remarkably increases with hyperglycemia!

glucosuria, the response is much more rapid than glycemic markers based on the glycation process (A1C).

Correlation between glycemic control Correlation between glycemic control markers and past fasting plasma glucose markers and past fasting plasma glucose
(FPG)(FPG)
Distribution of 1,5AG to FPG shows hyperbolic dispersion different from HbA1C and fructosamine. Therefore, Spearman's rank correlation coefficient is used here to make comparison between groups.

Patients were sorted by glycemic excursions as measured by CGMS (AUC-180) and subdivided into two populations – bottom 50th percentile (17 patients) and top 50th percentile (17 patients).
Authors’ Conclusions
•1,5-AG (GlycoMark) assay reflects glycemic excursions, often in the postprandial state, more robustly than other established glycemic assays.
•1,5-AG was reflective of varying postmeal glucose levels, despite similarities in A1Cs.
•In clinical practice, A1C and 1,5-AG may be used sequentially, first employing the A1C assay to identify patients who are moderately controlled and then using the 1,5-AG assay to determine the extent of postprandial glycemic excursions.

Representative Patients
UNC/Rochester Study Conclusions
In a subset of moderately controlled patients (A1C 6.5 to 8.0), significant postprandial hyperglycemia was present
1,5-AG reflects postprandial hyperglycemia more robustly than established glycemic assays
At similar A1C levels, there may be variability in postprandial hyperglycemia –which is reflected by 1,5-AG levels!!
UNC/Rochester Study Clinical Possibilities
1,5-AG may be used in combination with A1C for better predictability of postprandial hyperglycemia than either assay alone
A Two-Step Sequential Process Might be Used:
1) Use A1C to identify patients who are moderately controlled (A1C 6.5 to 8.0)
2) Use1,5-AG to determine extent of postprandial hyperglycemia
