Article Abstract
Background: Diabetes is associated with endothelial cell dysfunction. E-selectin is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule, which is bound for endothelial cell activation. E-selectin gene+A561C polymorphism is associated with many different disorders: essential hypertension, stroke, angina pectoris, coronary heart disease, etc. But the association with type 2 diabetes remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the role of E-selectin gene+A561C polymorphism and soluble E-selectin in type 2 diabetes in a Chinese population.
Methods: This study involved 317 patients with type 2 diabetes and 285 normal healthy controls. Genotyping of E-selectin gene+A561C polymorphism was examined by polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragments length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Soluble E-selectin was examined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Biochemical markers were measured by Roche 7600 Automated Biochemical Analyzer.
Results: We found that C allele frequency in E-selectin A561 C polymorphism of Chinese T2DM group was higher than control group. The level of soluble E-selectin in T2DM group was higher than control group. TC, TG, LDL-C, ApoB, and sE-selectin (soluble E-selectin) in AC and CC genotypes were higher than AA genotype.
Conclusions: Our findings showed that E-selectin +A561C polymorphism was correlated in the Chinese population with type 2 diabetes. C allele and soluble E-selectin may be predisposing factors of Chinese population with type 2 diabetes.

Aging is characterized by a gradual decline in the functionality of all the organs and tissues, leading to various diseases. As the global population ages, the urgency to develop effective anti-aging strategies becomes increasingly critical due to the growing severity of associated health problems. Immunotherapy offers novel and promising approaches to combat aging by utilizing approaches including vaccines, antibodies, and cytokines to target specific aging-related molecules and pathways.

Background: The objective of this study was to compare the effects of daily consumption of white potatoes compared with white rice on cardiometabolic health in individuals with type-2 diabetes (T2D).
Objective: To determine the effects of white potato consumption compared to white rice (a commonly consumed refined grain) on indices of glycemic control and cardiovascular health in individuals with overweight or obesity and T2D.
Methods: In this randomized crossover study, comparative control trial, 24 adults with T2D [45-80 y, body mass index (kg/m) 25-40] consumed baked white potatoes (100 g) or calorie-matched white rice (75 g) daily for 12 wk, separated by a 2-wk washout, with assessments of glycemic control, lipids, inflammation, blood pressure, endothelial function, and body composition at baseline (only 1 baseline visit included as a covariate in statistical analyses), 6 wk, and 12 wk.

Insulin therapy remains a cornerstone in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), especially in patients experiencing progressive loss of pancreatic beta-cell function or those with inadequate glycemic control despite oral antidiabetic therapy. This review synthesized clinical outcomes from 44 peer-reviewed case reports published between 2019 and 2024, identified through systematic searches in PubMed and Scopus. The included cases involved 15 males and 29 females, with patient ages ranging from 11 to 91 years (mean 53 ± 20.

Background: The methylation of and its influence on protein stability and degradation could play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), although the underlying molecular mechanisms are not yet fully understood. This study investigates the molecular and bioinformatic features of methylation in T2DM.
Methods: Bioinformatics analyses were conducted on the T2DM database chip.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a type of diabetes mellitus occurring in pregnant women, increases the risk of birth trauma. Solute carrier family 2 member 4 (SLC2A4) polymorphism is notably associated with GDM susceptibility; however, the mechanism is unknown. In the present study, HTR-8/SVneo cells were treated with high glucose concentrations and transfected with SLC2A4 and Forkhead box O (FoxO)1 to investigate their roles in the insulin (INS) resistance of GDM trophoblast cells.
