Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - June 24, 2025) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) (FSE: 9DL0) ("Founders" or the "Company") announces a new high-grade gold discovery at its Antino Gold Project ("Antino" or "Project") in southeastern Suriname (Figure 1). The Company reports a 22.5 metre (m) interval of 11.88 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) at Maria Geralda, a new exploration target approximately 5 km SE of Lower Antino. The drilling follows up on systematic surface exploration, including prospecting, mapping, and augering programs that identified a 500 m by 400 m gold anomaly at surface.HighlightsFirst-ever drilling at Maria Geralda delivers exceptional results with 22.5 m of 11.88 g/t Au (MG003)Discovery validates systematic exploration approach with auger sampling identifying a 500 m by 400 m gold anomaly at surface where 54% of samples returned assays above 0.1 g/t AuSignificant expansion potential with the discovery zone open along strike and to depth, supporting plans for follow-up drilling in 2025Colin Padget, President & CEO of Founders, commented, "While weather has limited our access to other exploration targets recently, we were pleased to maintain ready access to Maria Geralda and follow up on early surface results. This outstanding start to drilling at Maria Geralda further validates our exploration approach across the 200 km² Antino land package. The 22.5 m interval grading 11.88 g/t Au represents some of the highest-grade mineralization we've encountered to date. These results demonstrate the substantial discovery potential that exists beyond the property's current established zones. Between this discovery, recent expansions at Upper and Lower Antino, and our ongoing 2025 exploration program, we see significant opportunity to build shareholder value."Maria Geralda is located along a major structural corridor on a northwest-trending lineament at the geologic boundary between intrusive rocks and mixed metavolcanic-metasedimentary formations. The discovery hole was designed to test the geochemical anomaly identified through the Company's auger sampling program. Founders plans to follow-up with systematic step-out drilling to define the extent of mineralization along strike and to depth.About Founders Metals Inc.Founders Metals is a Canadian-based exploration company focused on advancing the Antino Gold Project located in Suriname, South America, in the heart of the Guiana Shield. Antino is 20,000 hectares and has produced over 500,000 ounces of gold from surface and alluvial mining to date1.

MALANG, E. JAVA, Indonesia, June 24, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A research team from Brawijaya University (UB) has identified two new microalgae genera in the waters around Bawean Island, Gresik Regency, East Java, and Tomini Bay, Central Sulawesi.Lecturer of the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences (FPIK) Oktiyas Muzaky Luthfi, S.T., M.Sc. while conducting research on an object. (ANTARA/HO-Humas Universitas Brawijaya)"The newly identified microalgae genera are Paracatenula and Wallaceago," head of the research team and lecturer at UB’s Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Oktiyas Muzaky Luthfi stated in Malang, East Java, on Friday.The genus name Wallaceago was chosen to honor Alfred Russel Wallace -- a renowned naturalist, explorer, geographer, anthropologist, and expert on species distribution.Each of the two new genera also includes newly identified species: Paracatenula porostriata and Wallaceago porostriatus.Discovered near Bawean Island, Paracatenula porostriata is characterized by a circular shell structure with small pores and a flat valve.Meanwhile, Wallaceago porostriatus, found in Tomini Bay, has valves that are partially diamond-shaped with fine lines on the lower surface.These discoveries have already been published in an international scientific journal.In addition to Paracatenula and Wallaceago, the UB team also identified several new species within the genera Catenula and Catenulopsis.According to a summary of the published journal, four new species were found in the genus Catenula: Catenula boyanensis, Catenula komodensis, Catenula decusa, and Catenula densestriata.These species were discovered in Bawean Island, Tiga Warna Beach in Malang, East Java, and Tomini Bay, Central Sulawesi.One more species identified under the genus Catenulopsis was named Catenulopsis baweana."We discovered it in Bawean, which is why it is named baweana," Luthfi explained.The research and identification process took place from 2021 to 2024, using both light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for morphological analysis.Researchers explored the diversity of diatoms from sediment and fragments of dead coral in reef environments.The study involved collaboration with several universities from different countries, including the University of Szczecin and the University of Rzeszów in Poland, as well as the University of Michigan in the United States.Luthfi emphasized that the discovery is important for sustaining life on Earth, as microalgae not only form the foundation of the food chain but also play a vital role in oxygen production."Microalgae are responsible for generating 20 percent of the Earth’s oxygen," he noted.He remarked that this discovery provides a foundation for monitoring marine environments, studying tropical aquatic ecology, and conducting paleoecological research."This proves that Indonesia’s oceans harbor an abundance of microscopic life that we have yet to fully understand," he concluded.For more information please click: https://ub.ac.idBrawijaya University: https://prasetya.ub.ac.idEditor : A Malik Ibrahim, Copyright (c) ANTARA 2025 Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Shanghai, Jun 23, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hua Medicine ("the Company", stock code: 2552.HK) announced today that the Company presented the latest research results of dorzagliatin, its global first-in-class glucokinase activator (GKA), at the 85th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association (ADA). A preclinical animal study showed that the combination of dorzagliatin and sitagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, improves blood glucose levels, promotes insulin secretion, and enhances GLP-1 secretion. The combination therapy was more effective than dorzagliatin alone. The blood chemistry analysis further indicates that the combination therapy has potential benefits for lipid lowering (especially LDL) (See Figure 1).Dorzagliatin is the world's first glucokinase activator independently developed by Hua Medicine, aiming to restore the imbalanced blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes by repairing the impaired function and expression of glucokinase and enhancing glucose sensitivity in patients with type 2 diabetes. Sitagliptin, a DPP4 inhibitor, improves glucose control by blocking degradation of GLP-1. This study aims to assess the impact of long-term administration of dorzagliatin and the combination of dorzagliatin/sitagliptin on glucose homeostasis in high-fat diet-induced obesity/diabetes (DIO) mice.In the study, the DIO mice were administered dorzagliatin at a dosage of 30 mg/Kg/day, or a combination of dorzagliatin (same dose) and sitagliptin (20mg/Kg/day) for 30 days. Mice on a standard diet served as controls. On day 30, the glucose levels were all reduced compared to pre-treatment, and the combination therapy was more effective than dorzagliatin alone. Dorzagliatin monotherapy promoted insulin and GLP-1 secretion, and the combination resulted in a further increase.Blood biochemical analysis showed that drug treatment significantly improved glycated serum protein (GSP) in DIO mice. Combination therapy also improved low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels. LDL transports cholesterol to arteries, and excessive LDL can cause arteriosclerosis, myocardial infarction, stroke, and peripheral arterial diseases. These results suggest that combination therapy has potential benefits reducing blood lipids (especially LDL) while restoring glucose homeostasis, exploring possibilities for clinical medication and new indication expansion. Figure 1 Blood Biochemical 2025 ADA 893-PAnother investigator-initiated real-world study was also presented at the ADA conference. This single-center prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the short-term efficacy and underlying mechanisms of dorzagliatin in T2DM patients. Interim analysis showed significant reductions in HbA1c levels, improvements in continuous glucose monitoring parameters, and protection of β-cell insulin secretion capacity as indicated by β-cell function indices (See Figure 2). The key analysis data are as follows:HbA1c- decreased significantly from 8.1±1.2% at baseline to 7.3±1.1% at 3 months- sustained the reduction to 7.3±1.1% at 6 months (both p

上海 ，2025年6月23日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 华领医药（"公司"，香港联交所股份代号：2552.HK）今天宣布，第85届美国糖尿病协会（ADA）科学年会上，公司展示了其全球首创新药葡萄糖激酶激活剂（GKA）多格列艾汀（dorzagliatin）的最新研究成果。一项基础动物研究表明，多格列艾汀联合DPP-4抑制剂西格列汀（Sitagliptin）使用可以改善血糖水平、促进胰岛素分泌、增强GLP-1分泌等，效果优于多格列艾汀单独用药。血液生化分析则显示，联合用药对于降低血脂（特别是LDL）有潜在获益（见图1）。多格列艾汀是华领医药自主研发的全球首创葡萄糖激酶激活剂，通过修复2型糖尿病患者受损的葡萄糖激酶（GK）功能和表达，提升2型糖尿病患者的葡萄糖敏感性，从而改善患者血糖稳态失调。西格列汀（Sitagliptin）是一款DPP-4抑制剂类降糖药，通过抑制GLP-1降解改善血糖控制。该研究旨在评估两药联用长期治疗对高脂饮食诱导肥胖/糖尿病(DIO)小鼠葡萄糖稳态的影响，为临床联合用药提供依据。研究对于DIO小鼠模型分别给予30 mg/kg/天的多格列艾汀单药或联合20 mg/kg/天的西格列汀治疗30天，以标准饮食小鼠作为对照。治疗30天后，小鼠血糖水平较治疗前显著改善，且联合用药治疗效果优于单独用药。多格列艾汀单独用药可促进胰岛素和GLP-1的分泌，联合用药进一步增强了这一效应。血液生化指标分析则显示，药物治疗显著改善了DIO小鼠的糖化血清蛋白（GSP），联合治疗还改善了低密度脂蛋白（LDL）水平。低密度脂蛋白将胆固醇运送至动脉，过量的低密度脂蛋白会造成动脉硬化、心肌梗塞、中风及周围动脉疾病等。这一结果表明，联合用药在恢复血糖稳态的同时，对于降低血脂（特别是LDL）有潜在获益，为临床用药和新适应症的拓展探索了可能性。（图1 血液生化指标 2025 ADA 893-P）另一项研究者发起的真实世界研究也在ADA年会上进行了展示。该研究是一项单中心前瞻性观察性研究，旨在评估多格列艾汀在2型糖尿病患者中的短期疗效及机制。中期分析显示，患者的糖化血红蛋白（HbA1c）水平显著降低，连续血糖监测（CGM）指标改善，β细胞功能指标分析提示β细胞的胰岛素分泌功能得到保护(见图2)。重点分析数据如下：HbA1c：- 治疗3个月后，从基线水平8.1±1.2%显著降至7.3±1.1%，6个月时维持该水平（均p

DOVER, DE, June 21, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In a fiery spectacle worthy of Silicon Valley lore, Ditchit - a rising star in the online marketplace space and rival to OfferUp - has made headlines by purchasing and then blowing up the original 560-pound Twitter bird sign once perched atop the company's San Francisco headquarters.The marketing stunt, filmed in the Nevada desert with a 15-person production crew, four Tesla Cybertrucks, and a Hollywood pyrotechnics expert, marked a symbolic farewell to legacy tech monopolies and a bold introduction to Ditchit's mission: to build a local marketplace that puts people before profits."Elon Musk rebranded Twitter to X to support free expression. At Ditchit, we're doing the same for local marketplaces," said Ditchit spokesman James Deluca. "Today's platforms are filled with ads, fees, and algorithms that prioritize businesses over people. Ditchit is different-free to use, ad-free, and designed to support real communities and real sellers."The 12-foot-tall Twitter logo, affectionately known as "Larry," was purchased at auction for $34,000 earlier this year. While the initial acquisition was driven by nostalgia, the company ultimately decided to transform the artifact into a symbol of disruption.The resulting video, now live on YouTube, shows the massive sign's explosive end outside of Las Vegas, capturing a cinematic moment that's already garnering viral attention.But "Larry's" story doesn't end in smoke. Fragments of the sign have been salvaged and will be sold on the Ditchit app in a sealed-bid auction starting today. 100% of proceeds will go to the Center for American Entrepreneurship, a nonprofit that champions startup innovation and supports the next generation of entrepreneurs."Many entrepreneurs get their start on local marketplace apps," Deluca added. "We're here to support that journey-not just through our platform, but through action."With the stunt, Ditchit isn't just selling a piece of tech history. It's signaling a new era for digital marketplaces - one powered by transparency, accessibility, and the belief that local economies deserve better.About DitchitDitchit is a community-first local marketplace built for everyday buyers and sellers. Unlike traditional platforms, Ditchit is ad-free, fee-free, and designed to keep transactions simple and fair. Founded in 2024, the Ditchit app is available for iOS and Android.Media Contact:James DelucaPR Manager, Ditchitjames.deluca@ditchit.comSOURCE: Ditchit Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Mixing two or three alkyl-π liquids can achieve the right combination of functions for soft electronics.TSUKUBA, Japan, June 18, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Soft electronics are an exciting and innovative class of technology that brings together bendable, stretchable semiconducting materials for applications in areas ranging from fashion to healthcare. Researchers have recently developed a new technique to adjust the properties of liquids that could be used to create soft electronics.Researchers successfully blended various combinations and proportions of three solvent-free alkyl-π room-temperature liquids that fluoresced red, green, or blue light, with no color variation within the material showing that the alkyl-π liquids had merged evenly. Credit: Image is reproducible by CC-BY license. Please credit the STAM Journal.Room-temperature alkylated-π molecular liquids (known as alkyl-π liquids) are an exciting new material that holds great promise for soft electronics. However, one challenge with these fascinating liquids lies in fine-tuning their physical, chemical, and electronic properties – including their ability to interact with light – to achieve the desired functionality.A new study, led by researchers from the National Institute of Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba, Japan, has explored a strategy for blending together alkyl-π liquids to merge their functions homogeneously. The researchers used photoluminescent color tuning to demonstrate how well the process has worked. Their findings have been published in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.Previous efforts to control the properties of alkyl-π liquids have taken one of two approaches. The first involves incorporating small amounts of other molecules, such as dyes, into the liquid. “When modulating function by adding solid dopants, the dopant molecules have poor solubility, leading to insoluble aggregates and inconsistencies in properties such as luminescent color,” says Dr. Takashi Nakanishi of the Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics at NIMS.The second approach involves chemically modifying the alkyl-π liquids. While this can achieve a uniform result, designing and synthesising entirely new molecules is difficult and less time- and cost-effective.In the new study, researchers synthesised three solvent-free alkyl-π room-temperature liquids that fluoresced red, green, or blue light, and then they blended the liquids together in varying proportions. They successfully created a range of homogeneous liquid blends of colors with no color variation within the material, showing that the alkyl-π liquids had merged evenly.The team also assessed how well the two liquids had mixed by changing the temperature and studying how the flow of the mixed liquids changed over time at different temperatures. This approach further confirmed that the liquids were successfully blended together.“The liquid–liquid blending method implemented in this study for alkyl-π liquids facilitates the production of low-volatility, ink-like materials that exhibit a diverse spectrum of uniform luminescent colors, devoid of any color unevenness,” Dr. Nakanishi says. “This means it will be possible to apply or coat the desired function with simple operations such as painting, sandwiching, or soaking the liquid materials wherever needed.”The research opens the path to blending alkyl-π liquids to vary other functions, such as photoconductivity, charge retention, or gas sensing.Further informationTakashi NakanishiNational Institute for Materials Science (NIMS)nakanishi.takashi@nims.go.jpPaper: https://doi.org/10.1080/14686996.2025.2515007About Science and Technology of Advanced Materials (STAM)Open access journal STAM publishes outstanding research articles across all aspects of materials science, including functional and structural materials, theoretical analyses, and properties of materials. https://www.tandfonline.com/STAM Dr. Kazuya SaitoSTAM Publishing DirectorEmail: SAITO.Kazuya@nims.go.jpPress release distributed by Asia Research News for Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.
