Canagliflozin alleviates acetaminophen-induced renal and hepatic injury in mice by modulating the p-GSK3β/Fyn-kinase/Nrf-2 and p-AMPK-α/STAT-3/SOCS-3 pathways by Abeer Bishr, Bassant M. El-Mokadem, Asmaa A. Gomaa

“…Cana was given for 5 days; a single dose of APAP was injected on the 6th day, followed by the scarification of animals 24 h later. Key findings: Pre-treatment with Cana ameliorated hepatic and renal functions, whereas, on the molecular levels, Cana promoted hepatic/renal P-AMP-activated protein kinase-α/ protein kinase B (p-Akt)/Glycogen synthase kinase (p-GSK3β) protein expression. …”

Adjuvanted subunit intranasal vaccine reduces SARS-CoV-2 onward transmission in hamsters by Yongjun Sui, Swagata Kar, Bhavna Chawla, Tanya Hoang, YuanKai Yu, Shannon M. Wallace, Hanne Andersen, Jay A. Berzofsky

“…As a subunit intranasal COVID-19 vaccine reduced nasopharyngeal virus more than did an intramuscular (IM) vaccine, we hypothesized that this vaccine might reduce onward transmission to others.MethodsWe vaccinated hamsters with either the IM-administrated licensed mRNA vaccine twice or one dose of mRNA IM followed by adjuvanted subunit intranasal vaccine. 24 hours after SARS-CoV-2 challenge, these animals were housed with naïve recipients in a contactless chamber that allows airborne transmission.ResultsOnward airborne transmission was profoundly blocked: the donor and recipients of the intranasal vaccine-boosted group had lower oral and lung viral loads (VL), which correlated with mucosal ACE2 inhibition activity. …”
