🛡️ Saudi Arabia claims to stop Houthi missiles

Saudi Arabia announced the interception of Houthi missiles targeting the Kingdom. The group, however, simultaneously claimed to have launched strikes against Riyadh and Aramco. These reported incidents occurred amidst ongoing regional tensions in the Middle East. The conflict involves various factions vying for influence in the Arabian Peninsula. Further updates are expected as the situation continues to unfold across the region. 🛡️

🔬 FTO overexpression fights kidney cell damage in research

Overexpression of FTO was found to inhibit ferroptosis caused by OGD/R in mouse renal tubular epithelial cells. This research was conducted by various authors at Baoshan People’s Hospital. Key findings were documented on September 24, 2026, with significant markers increased in injury models. FTO activation works by boosting the NRF2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway, reducing cell injury. This suggests FTO could be a target for managing Acute Kidney Injury (AKI).

🔬 Azadirachta indica oil targets cancer cells

Researchers profiled essential oils from Azadirachta indica leaf extract to see if they could kill colorectal cancer cells. This study took place using HT-29 cell cultures, and results were published on September 24, 2026. The essential oil induced primary apoptosis in HT-29 cells at 24.3% and 41.8% when treated with 5 and 10 μg/mL respectively. This shows the oil significantly inhibits cancer cell proliferation and upregulates Caspase 3 and 9. Future work will focus on these molecular targets for potential drug discovery. 🔬

🏫 Shopian School Allowed to Reopen After UAPA Seal

A local court permitted the resumption of academic activities at Darul Uloom Jamia Siraj-ul-Uloom in Shopian, South Kashmir. The court, headed by Sessions Judge Mehmood Ahmad Chowdhary, issued the order on Thursday, September 24, 2026. Previously, the school was sealed in April of this year following allegations of links to Jamaat-e-Islami and financial issues. This interim relief allows the 814 students and 102 staff to rejoin classes while the main case is decided. A committee involving education and civil society will now oversee the school's functioning. 🏫
