Antiviral, immunomodulatory, and anticoagulant effects of quercetin and its derivatives: Potential role in prevention and management of COVID-19

Souparnika H. Manjunath et al.

Summary: This review discusses the potential of prophylactic quercetin supplementation in managing the COVID-19 pandemic. Quercetin has various mechanisms, including inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 replication, antiviral activity, inhibiting inflammatory signals, and mitigating coagulation abnormalities, which may play an important role in COVID-19 patients.

Early use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in COVID-19 might reverse pathogenesis, prevent complications and improve clinical outcomes

Mina T. Kelleni

Summary: This manuscript presents a novel theory for the pathogenesis of COVID-19 and suggests the early use of NSAIDs, including ibuprofen, as a safe and potentially preventative measure for COVID-19 complications. The author also advocates against routine use of glucocorticoids for COVID-19 patients, recommending their use only for those with late acute respiratory distress syndrome.

A review on possible mechanistic insights of Nitazoxanide for repurposing in COVID-19

Amit S. Lokhande et al.

Summary: Nitazoxanide, a US-FDA approved anti-protozoal drug, shows promise in repurposing for COVID-19 therapy by potentially enhancing host immune responses and improving patient conditions. In vitro studies and approved clinical trials worldwide support the potential of nitazoxanide in combating COVID-19 pathogenesis.

Necrostatin-1 and necroptosis inhibition: Pathophysiology and therapeutic implications

Liyuan Cao et al.

Summary: Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) is an inhibitor of necroptosis that has been shown to play an important role in various diseases and has the potential to provide protection in diseases such as COVID-19. Research findings indicate that Nec-1 can ameliorate disease development by inhibiting the necroptosis signaling pathway.

Apoptosis induced by SARS-CoV-2: can we target it?

Ahmed Donia et al.

Summary: Viruses can trigger increased apoptosis in host cells, which plays a complex role in antiviral immunity and may contribute to viral clearance or tissue damage in diseases. The induction of apoptosis is a key feature of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and there is a direct correlation between apoptosis rate and COVID-19 severity. Targeting virus-induced apoptosis could be a promising strategy in treating SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Metabolic programs define dysfunctional immune responses in severe COVID-19 patients

Elizabeth A. Thompson et al.

Summary: The study identifies a unique population of T cells expressing increased VDAC1 in severe and recovered COVID-19 patients, associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis. Additionally, specific metabolic phenotypes of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in COVID-19 patients can distinguish between severe and mild disease. These findings offer insight into dysfunctional immune response in COVID-19 patients and potential for developing personalized therapeutic approaches.

Summary: The complex pathogenic pathways of COVID-19 require urgent development of new therapies to address future epidemics. Research shows that the destructive pathways of COVID-19 share similar clinical symptoms with severe acute coronary syndrome. Revealing the exact pathogenic pathways and host factors can pave the way for combating COVID-19.

Effect of anticoagulant therapy in COVID-19 patients

R. G. Tieleman et al.

Summary: Studies on the impact of anticoagulation therapy on outcomes in COVID-19 patients suggest that there is currently insufficient evidence to support the notion that therapeutic anticoagulation can improve patient prognosis. While two studies showed an association between anticoagulation and lower incidence of pulmonary embolism, most studies did not demonstrate a positive effect on other clinical outcomes, mainly due to low scientific quality of the studies.

Summary: The study recommends using a novel combination of resveratrol and zinc for managing COVID-19, with potential as a monotherapy for mild cases and as an adjuvant therapy. Clinical trials are suggested to assess the efficacy of these combinations, which may also have therapeutic potential for other diseases beyond COVID-19.

COVID-19, Ebola virus disease, and Nipah virus infection reclassification as novel acute immune dysrhythmia syndrome (n-AIDS): potential crucial role for immunomodulators

Mina T. Kelleni

Summary: This manuscript proposes a novel immunological reclassification of diseases like COVID-19 as acute onset immune dysrhythmia syndrome (n-AIDS) and suggests the use of immunomodulators to effectively manage these diseases. It also introduces the concept of para COVID syndrome to describe various immune-related complications.

Early COVID-19 therapy with azithromycin plus nitazoxanide, ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine in outpatient settings significantly improved COVID-19 outcomes compared to known outcomes in untreated patients

F. A. Cadegiani et al.

Summary: The study found that nitazoxanide, ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine showed significant benefits in early-stage COVID-19 patients, reducing viral shedding, disease duration, and adverse outcomes like respiratory complications, hospitalization, mechanical ventilation, and deaths. The combination of early detection and pharmacological approaches in early-stage COVID-19 consistently provided overwhelming benefits to patients, thus eliminating the need for full placebo controlled trials.
