    Abstract Hemoglobin A1c (A1C) is widely used for the diagnosis and management of diabetes. Accurate measurement of A1C is necessary for optimal clinical value. Assay standardization has markedly improved the accuracy and consistency of A1C testing. Devices to measure A1C at point of care (POC) are commercially available, allowing rapid results when the patient is seen. In this review, we describe how standardization of A1C testing was achieved, leading to high-quality results in clinical laboratories. We address the use of POC A1C testing in clinical situations and summarize the advantages and disadvantages of POC A1C testing. We emphasize the importance of considering the limitations of these devices and following correct testing procedures to ensure that accurate A1C results are obtained for optimal care of patients.

    Abstract Background: Currently, no authoritative guidelines exist recommending the analytical performance specification (APS) of blood beta-hydroxybutyrate (BOHB) testing in order to meet the clinical needs of patients. This study has applied existing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) BOHB diagnostic thresholds and the recommended rates of fall in BOHB concentrations during DKA treatment to establish pragmatic APSs for BOHB testing.
    Methods: Required analytical performance was based on 2 clinical requirements: (a) to reliably distinguish between non-adjacent DKA BOHB diagnostic categories of <0.6, 0.6 to 1.5, 1.6 to 2.9, and ≥3 mmol/L, and (b) to be assured that a measured 0.5 mmol/L reduction in BOHB indicates the true concentration is at least falling (meaning >0 mmol/L decline).
    Results: An analytical coefficient of variation (CV) of <21.5% could reliably distinguish all non-adjacent diagnostic categories with >99% certainty, assuming zero bias. In contrast, within-day CVs of 4.9%, 7.0%, and 9.1% at 3 mmol/L BOHB were required to assure truly falling ketone concentrations with 99% (optimal), 95% (desirable), and 90% (minimal) probability, respectively. These CVs are larger at lower BOHB concentrations and smaller at higher concentrations.
    Conclusions: Reliable tracking of changes in BOHB during DKA treatment largely drives the requirement for analytical performance. These data can be used to guide minimal, desirable, and optimal performance targets for BOHB meters and laboratory assays.

    Abstract The scaffold protein IQGAP1 associates with over 150 interactors to influence multiple biological processes. The molecular mechanisms that underly spatial and temporal regulation of these interactions, which are crucial for proper cell functions, remain poorly understood. The receptor tyrosine kinase MET phosphorylates IQGAP1 on Tyr 1510 . Separately, Src homology 2 (SH2) domains mediate protein–protein interactions by binding specific phosphotyrosine residues. Here, we investigate whether MET-catalyzed phosphorylation of Tyr 1510 of IQGAP1 regulates the docking of SH2-containing proteins. Using a peptide array, we identified SH2 domains from several proteins, including the non-receptor tyrosine kinases Abl1 and Abl2, that bind to the Tyr 1510 of IQGAP1 in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. Using pure proteins, we validated that full-length Abl1 and Abl2 bind directly to phosphorylated Tyr 1510 of IQGAP1. In cells, MET inhibition decreases endogenous IQGAP1 phosphorylation and interaction with endogenous Abl1 and Abl2, indicating that binding is regulated by MET-catalyzed phosphorylation of IQGAP1. Functionally, IQGAP1 modulates basal and HGF-stimulated Abl signaling. Moreover, IQGAP1 binds directly to MET, inhibiting its activation and signaling. Collectively, our study demonstrates that IQGAP1 is a phosphotyrosine-regulated scaffold for SH2-containing proteins, thereby uncovering a previously unidentified mechanism by which IQGAP1 coordinates intracellular signaling.

    Abstract The scaffold protein IQGAP1 assembles multiprotein signaling complexes to influence biological functions. Cell surface receptors, particularly receptor tyrosine kinases and G-protein coupled receptors, are common IQGAP1 binding partners. Interactions with IQGAP1 modulate receptor expression, activation, and/or trafficking. Moreover, IQGAP1 couples extracellular stimuli to intracellular outcomes via scaffolding of signaling proteins downstream of activated receptors, including mitogen-activated protein kinases, constituents of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway, small GTPases, and β-arrestins. Reciprocally, some receptors influence IQGAP1 expression, subcellular localization, binding properties, and post-translational modifications. Importantly, the receptor:IQGAP1 crosstalk has pathological implications ranging from diabetes and macular degeneration to carcinogenesis. Here, we describe the interactions of IQGAP1 with receptors, summarize how they modulate signaling, and discuss their contribution to pathology. We also address the emerging functions in receptor signaling of IQGAP2 and IQGAP3, the other human IQGAP proteins. Overall, this review emphasizes the fundamental roles of IQGAPs in coupling activated receptors to cellular homeostasis.
