Objective:To investigate the expression of SAPCD2 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) tissues and its effects on the biological function of ESCC cells in vitro, as well as the possible molecular mechanisms.Methods:By using the Gene Expression Profile Interaction Analysis (GEPIA) platform, the transcriptional level expressions of SAPCD2 in 182 ESCC samples and 286 normal esophageal tissue samples from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database were analyzed. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed on clinical tissue chips of ESCC patients, and staining scores were evaluated. The expression differences of SAPCD2 protein between 61 cancer tissues and the paired adjacent tissues with the complete clinical data, as well as the distribution of patients with SAPCD2 high expression among patients stratifies by different clinicopathological features were compared. ESCC cell line KYSE-150 was transfected with plasmids carrying SAPCD2 sequence and short hairpin RNA sequence targeting SAPCD2, respectively, which was treated as the SAPCD2 overexpression group and SAPCD2 knockdown group; and the cells transfected with empty plasmids and plasmids carrying negative RNA sequence were treated as the overexpression control group and the knockdown control group. CCK-8 method (expressed with the absorbance value) and plate clone formation assay were used to detect the cell proliferation ability. Cell migration was detected by using cell scratch assay and Transwell cell migration assay were used to detect the cell migration ability. The reverse-real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect the mRNA levels of SAPCD2, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), and Vimentin in cells of all groups. Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of SAPCD2 protein and proteins related to cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and AKT signaling pathway.Results:GEPIA platform analysis showed that the transcriptional expression level of SAPCD2 in ESCC tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). IHC staining showed that the staining score of SAPCD2 protein in cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues [(8.2±2.8) points vs. (2.2±1.7) points], and the proportion of patients with positive SAPCD2 protein (staining score > 0 point) in cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues [95.1% (58/61) vs. 57.4% (35/61)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.001), while there were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of the high expression of SAPCD2 protein (staining score > 3 points) patients stratified by gender, age, tumor size, pathological grade, and T stage, N stage and M stage (all P > 0.05). CCK-8 assay showed that the absorbance value of KYSE-150 cells in the SAPCD2 overexpression group after 96 h of culture was higher than that in the overexpression control group, while the absorbance values of the SAPCD2 knockdown group after 72 h and 96 h of culture were lower than those in the knockdown control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The plate clone formation assay showed that the number of colonies of KYSE-150 cells cultured for 14 d in the SAPCD2 overexpression group was more than that in the overexpression control group [(800±30) vs. (458±47)], and that in the SAPCD2 knockdown group was less than that in the knockdown control group [(52±7) vs. (81±2)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The cell scratch assay showed that after 24 h of culture, the scratch width of KYSE-150 cells in the SAPCD2 overexpression group was narrower than that in the overexpression control group [(51±9) μm vs. (89±7) μm], while that in the SAPCD2 knockdown group was wider than that in the knockdown control group [(120±22) μm vs. (37±10) μm], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Transwell cell migration assay showed that the migration number of KYSE-150 cells in the SAPCD2 overexpression group was more than that in the overexpression control group [(202±18) vs. (50±14)], and that in the SAPCD2 knockdown group was less than that in the knockdown control group [(227±27) vs. (483±16)], and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0.01). qPCR assay showed that the mRNA relative expression levels of MMP9, PCNA and Vimentin in KYSE-150 cells in the SAPCD2 overexpression group were all higher than those in the overexpression control group, while those in the SAPCD2 knockdown group were all lower than those in the knockdown control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Western blotting showed that the relative expression levels of PCNA and Vimentin proteins in KYSE-150 cells of the SAPCD2 overexpression group were higher than those of the overexpression control group, while the relative expression levels of epithelial cadherin (E-cad) and cleaved cysteine aspartate protease 3 (CASP3) proteins were lower than those of the overexpression control group; however, the expression levels in SAPCD2 knockdown group showed the opposite results, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05); the relative expression level of phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) protein in the SAPCD2 overexpression group was higher than that in the overexpression control group, while that in the SAPCD2 knockdown group was lower than that in the knockdown control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Conclusions:SAPCD2 is highly expressed at both the transcriptional level and the protein level in ESCC tissues. SAPCD2 promotes the proliferation and migration of ESCC cells in vitro, which may be related to the AKT signaling pathway.

Immunoprecipitation was first used to separate serum ceruloplasmin, followed by detection of serum NCC levels using ICP-MS. Two levels of quality control serum were reconstituted to determine the limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantitation (LOQ), accuracy, and precision of the self-developed method. The serum samples of 131 healthy individuals (healthy group) and 69 first-time diagnosed Wilson′s disease (WD) patients(WD group) from November 2023 to June 2024 in the Affiliated Hospital of Institute of Neurology, Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were collected. Using self-developed method detected the serum NCC levels, established the healthy reference intervals, and NCC levels between the two groups were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The calibration curve exhibited excellent lineary across the concentration range of 1.562 to 300.000 μg/L, as demonstrated by coefficient of determination ( R2) of 0.999. The self-developed NCC method exhibited that the LOD was 0.99 μg/L, the LOQ was 3.29 μg/L, the accuracy (spike and recovery experience) was 87.67%?106.27%, and the intra-batch and inter-batch imprecision expressed as coefficient of variation ( CV) was 2.8%?7.3%, and the healthy reference range was 34.31-71.79 μg/L. The serum NCC levels in the WD group were 102.39 (74.38, 144.04) μg/L, which was significantly higher than those in healthy group (51.45±10.34) μg/L ( Z=?7.967, P<0.01). Conclusions:The established IP-ICP-MS method for detecting serum NCC meets the required analytical performance criteria. It is simply operative, highly sensitive, and provides accurate and reliable results, which could be used for clinical detection.

Objective:
To explore the effect of "diabetes specialists-community general practitioners-community nurse co-management mode" and "diabetes specialist management mode" on diabetic nephropathy (DN) in primary medical institutions.
Methods:
Patients with type 2 diabetes admitted to Quanzijie Health Clinic of Jimusar County of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from October 2017 to March 2018 were enrolled. The Patients were divided into co-management group or specialist management group according to their administrative villages. The treatment plans of the two groups were formulated with reference to the current guidelines. The subjects of the co-management group were jointly managed by a fixed team composed of diabetes specialists from Jimusar Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, community general practitioners and community nurses from Quanzijie Health Clinic, and required to attend diabetes education courses every month. The diabetes specialist of Jimusar Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital was responsible for the formulation and management of the treatment plan of the research object. Follow-up was fulfilled once every 4 weeks for 24 weeks in two groups. Before and after intervention, blood glucose, blood pressure, urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as well as the utilization rate of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker (ACEI/ARB) were collected.
Results:
A total of 115 patients accomplished this study with 54 patients in co-management group and 61 patients in specialist management group. After 24 weeks of intervention, fasting glucose level, postprandial glucose level 2 hours after breakfast, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), Log UACR in co-management group and specialists management group were significantly decreased compared with baseline [fasting glucose level (mmol/L): 8.06±1.92 vs. 9.16±2.83, 8.21±2.10 vs. 9.06±1.89; postprandial glucose level 2 hours after breakfast (mmol/L): 12.26±3.78 vs. 14.11±5.28, 12.47±3.63 vs. 14.00±3.88; HbA1c: 0.074±0.014 vs. 0.082±0.023, 0.076±0.014 vs. 0.081±0.016; Log UACR (mg/g): 1.63±1.56 vs. 2.25±1.44, 1.84±1.65 vs. 2.43±1.56, all

Zinc levels are high in pancreatic β-cells, and zinc is involved in the synthesis, processing and secretion of insulin in these cells. However, precisely how cellular zinc homeostasis is regulated in pancreatic β-cells is poorly understood. By screening the expression of 14 Slc39a metal importer family member genes, we found that the zinc transporter Slc39a5 is significantly down-regulated in pancreatic β-cells in diabetic db/db mice, obese ob/ob mice and high-fat diet-fed mice. Moreover, β-cell-specific Slc39a5 knockout mice have impaired insulin secretion. In addition, Slc39a5-deficient pancreatic islets have reduced glucose tolerance accompanied by reduced expression of Pgc-1α and its downstream target gene Glut2. The down-regulation of Glut2 in Slc39a5-deficient islets was rescued using agonists of Sirt1, Pgc-1α and Ppar-γ. At the mechanistic level, we found that Slc39a5-mediated zinc influx induces Glut2 expression via Sirt1-mediated Pgc-1α activation. These findings suggest that Slc39a5 may serve as a possible therapeutic target for diabetes-related conditions.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the effect of "diabetes specialists-community general practitioners-community nurse co-management mode" and "diabetes specialist management mode" on diabetic nephropathy (DN) in primary medical institutions.
METHODS:
Patients with type 2 diabetes admitted to Quanzijie Health Clinic of Jimusar County of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from October 2017 to March 2018 were enrolled. The Patients were divided into co-management group or specialist management group according to their administrative villages. The treatment plans of the two groups were formulated with reference to the current guidelines. The subjects of the co-management group were jointly managed by a fixed team composed of diabetes specialists from Jimusar Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, community general practitioners and community nurses from Quanzijie Health Clinic, and required to attend diabetes education courses every month. The diabetes specialist of Jimusar Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital was responsible for the formulation and management of the treatment plan of the research object. Follow-up was fulfilled once every 4 weeks for 24 weeks in two groups. Before and after intervention, blood glucose, blood pressure, urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as well as the utilization rate of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin II receptor blocker (ACEI/ARB) were collected.
RESULTS:
A total of 115 patients accomplished this study with 54 patients in co-management group and 61 patients in specialist management group. After 24 weeks of intervention, fasting glucose level, postprandial glucose level 2 hours after breakfast, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), Log UACR in co-management group and specialists management group were significantly decreased compared with baseline [fasting glucose level (mmol/L): 8.06±1.92 vs. 9.16±2.83, 8.21±2.10 vs. 9.06±1.89; postprandial glucose level 2 hours after breakfast (mmol/L): 12.26±3.78 vs. 14.11±5.28, 12.47±3.63 vs. 14.00±3.88; HbA1c: 0.074±0.014 vs. 0.082±0.023, 0.076±0.014 vs. 0.081±0.016; Log UACR (mg/g): 1.63±1.56 vs. 2.25±1.44, 1.84±1.65 vs. 2.43±1.56, all P < 0.05], but there was no statistical significance between the two groups [fasting glucose level (mmol/L): -1.10±0.47 vs. -0.85±0.36, postprandial glucose level 2 hours after breakfast (mmol/L): -1.85±0.88 vs. -1.53±0.68, HbA1c: -0.008±0.004 vs. -0.006±0.003, Log UACR (mg/g): -0.61±0.29 vs. -0.59±0.29, all P < 0.05]. There were no significant changes in blood pressure, serum creatinine and eGFR in the two groups before and after intervention. There were 18 and 24 patients with hypertension in co-management group and specialist management group, respectively. The utilization rates of ACEI/ARB in both groups after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention [88.9% (16/18) vs. 22.2% (4/18), 95.8% (23/24) vs. 29.2% (7/24), both P < 0.01]. At the end of the study, the utilization rate of ACEI/ARB was similar between the two groups [88.9% (16/18) vs. 95.8% (23/24), P > 0.05].
CONCLUSIONS
Both "diabetes specialists-community general practitioners-community nurse co-management mode" and "diabetes specialist management mode" can effectively decrease glucose levels and UACR levels of patients with type 2 diabetes as well as the standard use of antihypertensive agents, which has positive effects on the prevention and treatment on DN.
