To determine human neutralizing antibodies (HuNAbs) for entry protection, we tested three potent HuNAbs (IC50 range, 0.0007-0.35 μg/mL) against live SARS-CoV-2 infection in the golden Syrian hamster model. These HuNAbs inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection by competing with human angiotensin converting enzyme-2 for binding to the viral receptor binding domain (RBD). Prophylactic intraperitoneal or intranasal injection of individual HuNAb or DNA vaccination significantly reduces infection in the lungs but not in the nasal turbinates of hamsters intranasally challenged with SARS-CoV-2. Although postchallenge HuNAb therapy suppresses viral loads and lung damage, robust infection is observed in nasal turbinates treated within 1-3 days. Our findings demonstrate that systemic HuNAb suppresses SARS-CoV-2 replication and injury in lungs; however, robust viral infection in nasal turbinate may outcompete the antibody with significant implications to subprotection, reinfection, and vaccine.Aspirin is an old drug extracted from willow bark and is widely used for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Accumulating evidence has shown that aspirin use may significantly reduce the angiogenesis of cancer; however, the mechanism of the association between angiogenesis and aspirin is complex. Although COX-1 is widely known as a target of aspirin, several studies reveal other antiangiogenic targets of aspirin, such as angiotensin II, glucose transporter 1, heparanase, and matrix metalloproteinase. In addition, some data indicates that aspirin may produce antiangiogenic effects after acting in different cell types, such as endothelial cells, platelets, pericytes, and macrophages. In this review, we concentrate on research regarding the antiangiogenic effects of aspirin in cancer, and we discuss the molecular mechanisms of aspirin and its metabolites. Moreover, we discuss some mechanisms through which aspirin treatment may normalize existing blood vessels, including preventing the disintegration of endothelial adheres junctions and the recruitment of pericytes. We also address the antiangiogenic effects and the underlying mechanisms of aspirin derivatives, which are aimed at improving safety and efficacy.Anemia with inflammation-induced defective iron utilization is a pathological condition observed in patients suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) or chronic inflammatory disease. There is no reasonable treatment for these conditions, because the effects of erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) or iron supplementation in the treatment of anemia are insufficient. JTZ-951 (enarodustat) has been characterized as a novel, orally bioavailable inhibitor of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH), and has been developed as a novel therapeutic agent for anemia with CKD. In this study, the effects of JTZ-951 on iron utilization during erythropoiesis and on anemia of inflammation were compared with those of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) using normal rat and rat model of anemia of inflammation. In normal rats, under conditions in which JTZ-951 and rHuEPO showed similar erythropoietic effect, repeated doses of JTZ-951 induced erythropoiesis while retaining the hemoglobin content in red blood cells, while administration of rHuEPO resulted in decrease in some erythrocyte-related parameters. As for iron-related parameters during erythropoiesis, JTZ-951 exhibited more efficient iron utilization compared to rHuEPO. A single dose of JTZ-951 resulted in decrease in hepcidin expression observed within 24 h after administration, but a single dose of rHuEPO did not. In a rat model of anemia of inflammation (also known as a model with functional iron-deficiency), JTZ-951 showed erythropoietic effect, in contrast with rHuEPO. These results suggest that, unlike rHuEPO, JTZ-951 stimulates erythropoiesis by increasing iron utilization, and improves anemia of inflammation.Compulsive eating is a common symptom of different conditions, including obesity, binge eating disorder and bulimia. One hypothesis is that contemporary food products promote compulsive eating via addiction-like mechanisms. However, what is the addictive substance in food, and what is the phenotypic overlap between obesity / eating disorders and addictions are questions that remain unresolved. In this review, we applied a multilevel framework of addiction, which encompasses the 'drug' (certain foods), the person's mindset, and the context, to improve understanding of compulsive eating. Specifically, we reviewed evidence on the addictive properties of specific foods, the neurocognitive systems that control dietary choices, and their interaction with physical, emotional and social contexts. We focused on different target groups to illustrate distinct aspects of the proposed framework the impact of food and contextual factors were examined across a continuum, with most studies conducted on healthy participants and subclinical populations, whereas the review of neurocognitive aspects focused on clinical groups in which the alterations linked to addictive and compulsive eating are particularly visible. The reviewed evidence suggest that macronutrient composition and level of processing are associated with the addictive properties of food; there are overlapping neuroadaptations in reward and decision-making circuits across compulsive eating conditions; and there are physical and social contexts that fuel compulsive eating by exploiting reward mechanisms and their interaction with emotions. We conclude that a biopsychosocial model that integrates food, neurobiology and context can provide a better understanding of compulsive eating manifestations in a transdiagnostic framework. This study compared 1-year results for the composite treatment outcome from the Tube Versus Trabeculectomy (TVT) randomized controlled trial (RCT) to those from an IRIS (Intelligent Research In Sight) Registry cohort of analogous eyes. Retrospective clinical study with comparison to an RCT. Subjects' eyes in the IRIS Registry received either a glaucoma drainage implant (tube) or underwent trabeculectomy after a previous trabeculectomy and/or cataract extraction and had data for 1-year follow-up analyses. Eyes were classified as failing if they had hypotony (intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤5 mm Hg) or inadequate IOP control (IOP >21 mm Hg or not reduced at least 20% below baseline) on 2 consecutive follow-up visits after 3 months, a reoperation for glaucoma, or no light perception vision and as successful otherwise. Failure risk was compared by treatment, demographic, and clinical variables and was compared to analogous failure risks from the TVT RCT. The TVT IRIS Registry cohort included 419 eyes, 236 tube eyes (56.
