The invention described herein relates to oral dosage form therapies for treating metabolic disorders using combinations of inhibitors of SGLT1 and SGLT2. In such dosage forms, SGLT1 is effective in the intestinal lumen, and is either not absorbed, or poorly absorbed, while the SGLT2 inhibitor inhibits sugar reabsorption in the kidney by inhibiting SGLT2 activity. Metabolic disorders treated by combined SGLT1 and SGLT2 oral dosage forms include disorders associated with abnormal accumulation of liver lipids, which may also be copresent with hyperglycemia. Combinations of SGLT1 and SGLT2 inhibitors are contemplated herein, particularly combinations

Disclosed herein are acylated active agents, compositions containing them, unit dosage forms containing them, and methods of their use, e.g., for treating a metabolic disorder or nonalcoholic fatty liver disease or for modulating a metabolic marker or nonalcoholic fatty liver disease marker.

The present disclosure features methods and compositions for enhancing the ability of the respiratory membranes to filter airborne pathogens and protect a subject from respiratory infections that result from inhalation of such pathogens. In particular, the disclosure provides antimicrobial compositions that prevent and treat respiratory infections caused by bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

A method for reducing nociceptive sensitivity in non-infant humans includes in some examples selecting a non-infant human experiencing a condition and associated nociceptive sensitivity (e.g., irritable bowel syndrome or chronic neuropathic pain). In such examples, the method further includes selecting an effective amount of one or more human milk oligosaccharides (“HMOs”) chosen from the group consisting of 6′-sialyllactose (6′-SL), and a mixture of 6′-SL and lacto-N-tetraose (LNT) and reducing the nociceptive sensitivity by administering the selected effective amount of the chosen HMOs to the non-infant human during an initial phase. In some examples, the method includes activating GPR35 receptors by administering the effective amount of the chosen one or more HMOs. In some examples, the HMOs are a mixture of 6′-SL and LNT that provides a synergistic effect relative to each of the 6′-SL and LNT alone.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of sepsis or systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) comprising mitochondria as effective ingredient. When activated macrophages and monocytes are treated with mitochondria which are effective ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 which are pro-inflammatory cytokines can be restored to normal levels. Furthermore, when the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is administered to a subject suffering from sepsis, the survival rate of the subject can be remarkably increased. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention can be useful for the treatment of sepsis.
