Several microRNAs mediate the functions of p53 family members. Here we characterize miR-1246 as a new target of this family. In response to DNA damage, p53 induces the expression of miR-1246 which, in turn, reduces the level of DYRK1A, a Down syndrome-associated protein kinase. Knockdown of p53 has the opposite effect. Overexpression of miR-1246 reduces DYRK1A levels and leads to the nuclear retention of NFATc1, a protein substrate of DYRK1A, and the induction of apoptosis, whereas a miR-1246-specific inhibitor prevented the nuclear import of NFATc1. Together, these results indicate that p53 inhibits DYRK1A expression through the induction of miR-1246.

SIRT6 is known to play a protective role in several kidney diseases; however, its role in vancomycin-induced renal injury remains unclear. This study aims to confirm the role and related mechanisms of SIRT6 in vancomycin-induced renal injury. To develop a kidney damage model, mice were given vancomycin injections for seven days.

Cadmium (Cd), one of the toxic heavy metals, is of great importance for public health due to its use in many industrial areas. Propolis is a natural product with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties collected from plants by honey bees. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective role of propolis against the potential toxic effects of cadmium chloride in blood, liver and kidney tissues.

Lactate has emerged as a central metabolic fuel and an important signaling molecule. Its availability participates in various brain functions. Although lactate homeostasis is vital for adult hippocampal neurogenesis and cognition, it is still unknown how shuttles lactate across the plasma membrane of neural stem cells (NSCs) to control their activity and neurogenic potential.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is amongst the earliest targeted kinases by small-molecule inhibitors for the management of EGFR-positive cancer types. While a few inhibitors are granted FDA approval for clinical use, discovery of new inhibitors is still of merit to enhance ligand-binding stability and subsequent enzyme inhibition. Thus, a structure-based design approach was adopted to devise a new series of twenty-nine N3-substituted quinazolin-4-ones as type I ATP-competitive inhibitors targeting the deep hydrophobic pocket of EGFR.
