Mechanistic insights into cardiac regeneration and protection through MEIS inhibition.

Article Synopsis
  • MEIS1 is a key regulator in stopping cardiomyocyte cell division and is a potential target for heart-related therapies.
  • Inhibition of MEIS1 through new small molecules (MEISi-1 and MEISi-2) boosts the growth and division of neonatal cardiomyocytes significantly compared to untreated cells.
  • MEIS1 inhibition not only reduces the expression of certain target genes but also enhances important cardiac-specific gene expression, suggesting these inhibitors could play a vital role in heart regeneration treatments.

, a desert shrub known for its impressive drought tolerance, exhibits notable resilience under arid conditions. However, the underlying mechanisms driving its drought resistance remain largely unexplored. This study aims to investigate these mechanisms by exposing to osmotic stress using varying polyethylene glycol (PEG) concentrations (1%, 5%, 10%) in a controlled laboratory setting.

Near the C-terminus of histone H2A in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, there are 2 serines (S122 and S129) that are targets of phosphorylation. The phosphorylation of serine 129 in response to DNA damage is dependent on the Tel1 and Mec1 kinases. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe and S.

Astrocytic proteostasis in the tale of aging and neurodegeneration.

Ageing Res Rev

January 2025

Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Electronic address:

Homeostasis of proteins (proteostasis), which governs protein processing, folding, quality control, and degradation, is a fundamental cellular process that plays a pivotal role in various neurodegenerative diseases and in the natural aging process of the mammalian brain. While the role of neuronal proteostasis in neuronal physiology is well characterized, the contribution of proteostasis of glial cells, particularly of astrocytes, has received fairly less attention in this context. Here, we summarize recent data highlighting proteostasis dysfunction in astrocytes and its putative implication to neurodegenerative diseases and aging.
