Removal of luminal content protects the small intestine during hemorrhagic shock but is not sufficient to prevent lung injury. [PDF]
The small intestine plays a key role in the pathogenesis of multiple organ failure following circulatory shock. Current results show that reduced perfusion of the small intestine compromises the mucosal epithelial barrier, and the intestinal contents ...

Trypstatin, a 61‐amino acid Kunitz‐type protease inhibitor derived from human Bikunin, potently inhibits TMPRSS2 and related proteases. It blocks spike‐ and hemagglutinin‐mediated entry of multiple respiratory viruses in vitro reduces SARS‐CoV‐2 replication in human airway cultures, and lowers viral load and symptoms in infected hamsters, demonstrating
