The present disclosure is directed to methods of treating fibrotic conditions by administration of TRβ agonists. The disclosure provides methods wherein the abnormal deposition of extracellular matrix components, such as collagen, keratin, or elastin, is reduced, either through interaction of TRβ agonists with TGF-β-dependent inflammatory pathways, or by other mechanisms, thereby ameliorating fibrotic symptoms.

The present invention discloses, in one embodiment, a method of using human induced pluripotent stem cells to generate three-dimensional human organ tissue for therapeutic drug toxicity and discovery⋅. In one embodiment, a high throughput microtiter plate is loaded with both wild type and Rett disease 3D spheroids and exposed to a drug library, and activity is measured and analyzed for disease rescue to wild type cell behavior.

Methods and formulations for treating and preventing LONG COVID sequelae are provided. An example method treats loss of smell and taste from SARS-CoV-2 infection, including assessing the patient, administering a composition with dosage between 1750-3600 mg per day, wherein the composition comprises a mixture of at least a withanolide-A, a boswellic acid, a [6]-gingerol, and a curcuminoid. Another example method treats memory loss or brain fog from SARS-CoV-2 infection, including assessing the patient, and administering a regenerative and neuroprotective composition comprising a mixture of withanoside VI, withanolide A, a Boswellia serrata plant, a Zingiber officinale rhizome, and a Curcuma longa rhizome. The compositions were found effective, achieving statistical significance in a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III clinical trial.
