Human coilin-interacting nuclear ATPase protein (hCINAP), also known as adenylate kinase 6 (AK6), is an atypical adenylate kinase with critical roles in many biological processes, including gene transcription, ribosome synthesis, cell metabolism, cell proliferation and apoptosis, DNA damage responses, and genome stability. Furthermore, hCINAP/AK6 dysfunction is associated with cancer and various inflammatory diseases. In this review, we summarize the structural features and biological roles of hCINAP in several important signaling pathways, as well as its connection with tumor onset and progression.

Historically, plant derived natural products and their crude extracts have been used to treat a wide range of ailments across the world. Biogerontology research aims to explore the molecular basis of aging and discover new anti-aging therapeutic compounds or formulations to combat the detrimental effects of aging and promote a healthy life span. The budding yeast has been, and continues to be, an indispensable model organism in the field of biomedical research for discovering the molecular basis of aging has preserved nutritional signaling pathways (such as the target of rapamycin (TOR)-Sch9 and the Ras-AC-PKA (cAMP-dependent protein kinase) pathways, and shows two distinct aging paradigms chronological life span (CLS) and replicative life span (RLS).

Background: Clozapine is superior to all other antipsychotics in treating schizophrenia in terms of its curative efficacy; however, this drug is prescribed only as a last resort in the treatment of schizophrenia, given its potential to induce cardiac arrest. The mechanism of clozapine-induced cardiac arrest remains unclear, so we aimed to elucidate the potential mechanisms of clozapine-induced cardiac arrest using network pharmacology and molecular docking.
Methods: We identified and analyzed the overlap between potential cardiac arrest-related target genes and clozapine target genes.

Importance: The brain and adipose tissue interact metabolically, and if there is a problem with the energy metabolism of the brain, it cannot maintain the energy balance with the adipose tissue. Therefore, when adenylate kinase 5 (), which regulates energy metabolism in the brain, is knocked out, problems with lipid metabolism may occur.
Objective: We aimed to elucidate the metabolic function and phenotype of , a gene with an unknown function in metabolism.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. Recently, the incidence of diabetes has increased exponentially, and it is estimated to become the seventh leading cause of global mortality by 2030. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a hormone derived from the intestine, has been demonstrated to exert remarkable hypoglycemic effects.
