New data shows Telomir-1 fully reverses STAT1 gene silencing by DNA methylation – a key immune regulator suppressed in cancer – delivering stronger epigenetic effects than Paclitaxel or Rapamycin in aggressive PC3 tumor models.

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / July 18, 2025 / Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:TELO), a preclinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies that target the root causes of biological aging and age-related diseases, today announced compelling new preclinical findings highlighting Telomir-1’s ability to reverse epigenetic gene silencing in aggressive human prostate cancer cells-achieving greater efficacy than Paclitaxel and Rapamycin in restoring the STAT1 tumor suppressor.

STAT1, a master regulator of immune surveillance and programmed cell death, is frequently silenced in advanced cancers through promoter hypermethylation. In this state, cancer cells effectively disable one of the body’s key defense mechanisms-shutting down immune detection and blocking signals that would normally trigger their death. In this newly reported study, Telomir-1 administered orally over 21 days in a mouse model implanted with aggressive human prostate cancer cells (PC3 xenograft) fully reversed this hypermethylation in a dose-dependent fashion. In contrast, Paclitaxel (PTX) showed no effect, and Rapamycin achieved only partial reduction of hypermethylation of STAT1.

By restoring STAT1 activity, Telomir-1 may be reawakening the body’s built-in tumor suppressor system-allowing immune cells to once again recognize, target, and eliminate cancer. This mechanism offers a potential explanation for the tumor shrinkage observed by Telomir-1 and highlights a biological pathway not addressed by standard chemotherapy.

“This study provides novel and direct molecular evidence of Telomir-1’s ability to reprogram cancer epigenetics,” said Erez Aminov, CEO of Telomir. “By potentially restoring the function of key tumor suppressor genes like STAT1, we’re not just slowing tumor growth-we’re turning the immune system back on. These results highlight Telomir-1’s potential as a powerful new approach to treating aggressive cancers as combination therapy with cancer immunomodulators.”

In addition to STAT1, Telomir-1 also reduced hypermethylation of TMS1 (also known as ASC or PYCARD), a pro-apoptotic tumor suppressor commonly silenced in prostate cancer. While PTX and Rapamycin showed comparable or greater effects on TMS1 methylation, Telomir-1 is unique in its ability to modulate both STAT1 and TMS1-two genes that together regulate immune response and apoptosis.

Importantly, TMS1 also plays a central role in inflammasome activation, which not only contributes to tumor cell death but also supports the immune system’s ability to detect and clear abnormal cells. When TMS1 is hypermethylated, this immune signaling pathway is disrupted-reducing caspase-1 activation and inflammatory cytokine release. This can impair immune surveillance and allow cancer cells to persist undetected. By reducing TMS1 hypermethylation, Telomir-1 may help restore immune recognition and enhance the tumor’s sensitivity to both chemotherapy and immunotherapy.

“PC3 cells are notoriously aggressive and resistant to treatment,” said Dr. Itzchak Angel, Chief Scientific Advisor at Telomir. “The potential simultaneous reactivation of STAT1 and TMS1 by inhibition of the regulatory hypermethylation suggests that Telomir-1 may help overcome two of the biggest hurdles in cancer biology-immune evasion and apoptosis resistance. This dual action could help explain the tumor suppression observed in our earlier studies. It may also offer a potential novel horizon for Telomir-1 as an associated therapy with immunosuppressors and chemotherapies.”

Selective Action on Telomeres Reinforces Safety

Importantly, in this study we have also found that Telomir-1 did not elongate telomeres in the cancerous prostate cells (PC3)-a critical finding that reinforces its cancer safety profile. While telomere elongation is a therapeutic goal in degenerative and aging-related diseases, in cancer cells, longer telomeres can fuel unchecked growth. PC3 cells already maintain short but stable telomeres via telomerase-a hallmark of malignancy. The fact that Telomir-1 exerted strong biological effects without increasing telomere length supports its selectivity in targeting telomere maintenance where appropriate.

Distinct and unique Mechanism

These new insights build upon findings previously announced on March 19, 2025, where Telomir-1 was shown to reduce tumor volume by approximately 50% and eliminate chemotherapy-induced mortality when combined with Paclitaxel in the same prostate cancer model. That study also suggested Telomir-1’s metal ion-regulating properties may mitigate oxidative stress-further protecting healthy cells from chemotherapy toxicity.

Advancing Toward the Clinic

Telomir is conducting ongoing research to evaluate Telomir-1 across multiple therapeutic areas, including oncology, Wilson’s disease, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), autism spectrum disorder, and dysphonia. The company is continuing preclinical development across these programs and plans to announce its initial IND indication at a future date.

“We remain encouraged by the preclinical data and continue to explore Telomir-1’s potential across several disease areas,” added Aminov. “Our team is committed to advancing this program thoughtfully and strategically as we move toward clinical development.”

Clear Start Tax breaks down how income from platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram can trigger audits if not reported correctly.

IRVINE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / July 18, 2025 / As more Americans turn to social platforms for income, the IRS is ramping up scrutiny of digital earnings like never before. According to Clear Start Tax, creators who earn money from TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Twitch, and other platforms may unknowingly trigger IRS scrutiny, especially if they don’t report sponsorships, tips, or affiliate income properly.

“Social media income is taxable – no matter how casual the content,” said the Head of Client Solutions at Clear Start Tax. “The IRS now receives 1099s from most creator platforms. If your return doesn’t match what they see, you could get flagged.”

Common Income Streams the IRS Tracks

While some digital entrepreneurs still see their content earnings as a casual side hustle, the IRS treats it as self-employment income. What many don’t realize is just how widely their income is reported – and which sources are most commonly flagged. Digital earnings are now more visible due to enhanced IRS data-matching tools and the mandatory tax forms issued by content platforms.

Clear Start Tax explains which revenue streams often get creators into trouble:

• Brand deals or sponsorships – Paid collaborations are reportable income, even if compensated in free products.

• YouTube, Twitch, or TikTok payouts – often reported via Form 1099-NEC or 1099-K issued by the platform.

• Affiliate links or referral bonuses – Whether through Amazon, Linktree, or custom brand deals, all commissions must be reported.

• Fan donations and tips – Payments through platforms like Patreon, Ko-fi, or Venmo are still taxable, even if labeled “support.”

• Merchandise and digital product sales – Sales income is taxable and may trigger additional obligations like self-employment taxes or estimated payments.

IRS Matching & 1099-Ks: Why Reporting Errors Trigger Notices

Starting in 2025, digital platforms must issue 1099-K forms for creators who earn $600 or more – a drastic shift from the old $20,000 threshold. These forms are shared with the IRS and automatically matched against tax returns.

If the IRS sees a discrepancy, it may trigger:

• CP2000 notices for underreported income

• Penalties and interest for late or missing payments

• An audit flag for large or repeated mismatches

“The IRS is using algorithms and AI to flag unreported digital income – and creators are getting caught off guard,” said the Head of Client Solutions. “Even small streams of income can add up fast.”

How Creators Can Stay Compliant in 2025

With growing IRS oversight of online income, digital creators need to approach their finances like a business. That means keeping thorough records, setting aside money for taxes, and understanding how self-employment rules apply, even for part-time or side-hustle content.

Clear Start Tax recommends content creators take proactive steps to avoid tax trouble:

• Track all payments from platforms, sponsors, and affiliate programs

• Keep receipts for business expenses like equipment, travel, or software

• Use separate accounts for business and personal finances

• File accurate self-employment returns, including Schedule C and SE

• Make quarterly estimated payments to avoid penalties

Fresh Start Relief for Creators With IRS Debt

Falling behind on taxes can happen quickly, especially when income is irregular and self-managed. Fortunately, even with growing IRS debt, creators still have strong options for resolving what they owe through the Fresh Start Program.

Through the IRS Fresh Start Program, Clear Start Tax helps creators:

• Apply for affordable payment plans

• Settle for less than owed with an Offer in Compromise

• Remove penalties and interest for qualifying hardship cases

By answering a few simple questions, taxpayers can find out if they’re eligible for the IRS Fresh Start Program and take the first step toward resolving their tax debt.

“We’ve seen creators who underestimated how quickly side income adds up – and ended up owing thousands,” said the Head of Client Solutions. “Tax debt doesn’t mean you’ve failed – but ignoring it can make recovery harder.”

About Clear Start Tax

Clear Start Tax is a full-service tax liability resolution firm that serves taxpayers throughout the United States. The company specializes in assisting individuals and businesses with a wide range of IRS and state tax issues, including back taxes, wage garnishment relief, IRS appeals, and offers in compromise.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / July 18, 2025 / Northern Superior Resources Inc. (“ Northern Superior ” or the “ Company “) (TSX-V:SUP)(OTCQX:NSUPF)(GR:D9M1) is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition of the Hazeur, Monster Lake East, and Monster Lake West Properties originally announced on June 16, 2025 (the “ Transaction “), expanding its total land position in the Chibougamau Gold Camp from 60,016 hectares to 68,522 hectares.

Advisors

Beacon Securities Limited acted as financial advisor and Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP as legal advisor to the Company in connection with the Transaction.

Properties Acquired

The Company believes the Hazeur property could be the northwest extension of its flagship Philibert Project (Northern Superior: 75%, SOQUEM: 25%), located just 9 km from IAMGOLD Corporation’s (“ IAMGOLD “) Nelligan project and 60 km southwest of Chibougamau, Quebec. Furthermore, the Monster Lake East and Monster Lake West properties are located on either side of IAMGOLD’s Monster Lake property, and between the Company’s Philibert and Chevrier projects (see Figure 1, 2 and 3 below).

The Company sees potential to expand the Philibert deposit along strike to the west, particularly within multiple shear zones such as the Red Fox Zone, which historically has seen the most drilling. The western limit of the Philibert deposit remains open, highlighted by near-surface intercepts of 4.84 g/t Au over 3.9 metres, including 16.4 g/t Au over 0.8 metres in hole PB-22-375. These results suggest the presence of a high-grade plunge within the gold system, which the Company is actively investigating ( see Figure 2 ).

“This acquisition is a major step forward in unlocking the broader potential of the Chibougamau Gold Camp. Not only do these new properties host known gold mineralization and compelling exploration upside, but they also extend key geological structures directly linked to the Philibert deposit. Combined with recent drilling success and a growing resource base, Philibert is rapidly emerging as a cornerstone asset in a camp now coming into prominence on the global stage,” said Simon Marcotte, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“In addition to the Hazeur property, the acquisition of the Monster Lake East and West properties gives us control over highly prospective ground along the Fancamp trend, adjacent to our Chevrier Project and IAMGOLD’s Monster Lake Project. We’re very encouraged by the strategic potential these new land packages offer. This acquisition extends our control to over 15 kilometres along the Guercheville Fault Zone ( see Figure 2 ), where the Philibert deposit remains open in both directions. The Hazeur property shows strong evidence for the continuation of Philibert-style mineralization. Additionally, we now cover more than 30 kilometres along the highly prospective Fancamp Fault Zone and Monster Lake trends, where we plan to apply our evolving geological and structural models to identify and advance new discovery targets,” added Adree DeLazzer, Vice President of Exploration.

Western Extension of the Philibert Deposit

Northern Superior sees strong potential to expand the Philibert deposit along strike to the west, particularly within a series of parallel shear zones that include the Red Fox Zone-the most extensively drilled area to date. Drilling has confirmed that mineralization remains open in this direction, with recent results indicating the continuation of high-grade structures. Notably, hole PB-22-375 returned a near-surface intercept of 4.84 g/t Au over 3.9 metres , including a higher-grade interval of 16.4 g/t Au over 0.8 metres , suggesting the presence of a high-grade plunge within the broader mineralized envelope.

The recent acquisition of the Hazeur property, directly adjoining the northwest boundary of the Philibert Project, strengthens this expansion opportunity. Historical drilling on Hazeur returned anomalous gold values near the shared boundary, indicating the potential continuation of the Philibert mineralized system which is also supported by airborne geophysics and regional mapping.

As part of the Company’s 2025 exploration program, detailed structural analysis, relogging of historical core, and targeted drilling are planned to delineate this western extension and could significantly expand the current resource footprint.

Figure 3: Long Section – 50 metre width looking Northeast and inclined at 35 degrees

Figure 4: Total Magnetic Field Map of the Philibert Property. See NI-43-101 information below in note 3.

Exploration Potential and Historical Highlights

The newly acquired properties have benefited from multiple exploration campaigns, including geophysical, geochemical, geological, and drilling programs. Northern Superior will initiate a comprehensive reinterpretation of all datasets, alongside regional surveys to develop new grassroots targets.

Key mineralized zones and targets include:

1. Northwest Extension of Philibert Deposit – Situated adjacent to the southeast corner of the Hazeur property. Historical work suggests that Philibert’s mineralized zones extend northwest into Hazeur, with drilling returning anomalous values immediately adjacent to Northern Superior’s current claims;

2. Jonction Sud – A several-kilometre-long gold-bearing horizon; and

3. Redess deposit – Several historic drill holes intercepted a mineralized horizon in a gabbro sill with similar characteristics to Philibert, suggesting a potential for more Philibert type mineralization 10km west of the current resource.

The Chibougamau Gold Camp

The Chibougamau Gold Camp is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most sought-after gold destinations with several complementary gold resources reaching viable scale. In recent years, these critical assets were divided amongst five different companies. Today, largely due to Northern Superior’s acquisitions and corporate transactions, [1] ownership has been streamlined, with only IAMGOLD and Northern Superior holding these assets. The proximity of these deposits to each other makes them ideally suited to feed a single mill, and their consolidation enhances their viability, thereby increasing their value.

Below is a table showing the resources of the camp having been formalized to date.

INDIANAPOLIS, IN AND ST. JOHN’S ANTIGUA / ACCESS Newswire / July 18, 2025 / Arrive AI (NASDAQ:ARAI) – a pioneering autonomous delivery network anchored by Arrive Points™ – today announced an expanded partnership with AllMart – Local Marketplace & ACT Antigua, which operates a delivery service on the islands of Antigua & Barbuda. This collaboration aims to enhance secure delivery options for residents on the islands.

Arrive AI and AllMart have been successfully testing smart mailbox delivery for several months. AllMart, CEO Andrew Doumith, stated the trials have demonstrated strong consumer interest in the enhanced security provided by Arrive AI’s secure mailboxes. With the completion of drone delivery tests and as demand increases, Arrive AI will update its existing smart mailbox footprint to the islands with a roll out of its more sophisticated, patented Arrive Points, which offer additional smart features, including temperature control, data tracking and emergency lighting.

“Our customers are very interested in being able to schedule grocery and retail deliveries and have those items waiting for them when they get home,” Doumith said. “It’s a real convenience that we believe will make a big difference for our customers.”

Arrive AI CEO Dan O’Toole anticipates a rise in demand as more consumers experience the service firsthand.

“Our work in Antigua is important because it showcases the value of our units, whether items are delivered autonomously or via traditional means,” O’Toole said. “Security is our primary concern, and with that comes huge convenience for consumers. We will continue to add technology to the service there as demand increases.”

AllMart had previously been making about 120,000 deliveries a year to customers with options for leaving ordered items either on doorsteps or in customers’ hands. The first option leaves items vulnerable to weather or other damage and theft. The second demands consumers be home when their deliveries arrive.

O’Toole also noted that the islands’ moderate regulation regarding drone usage will make the area a great testing ground for drone deliveries.

VANCOUVER, BC AND BREDA, THE NETHERLANDS / ACCESS Newswire / July 17, 2025 / Organto Foods Inc. (TSXV:OGO)(OTC PINK:OGOFF) (“Organto” or the “Company“) announces that it has completed the issuance of a total of 4,380,000 common shares (the “Shares“) to Jaluca Limited (“Jaluca“) at a deemed issue price of $0.10 per share following receipt of disinterested shareholder approval and TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V“) approval.

As disclosed in the Company’s March 20, 2025 and June 20, 2025 news releases, the Company retained Jaluca pursuant to a corporate finance advisory agreement to provide guidance and assistance in the negotiation and implementation of the overall restructuring of the Company, including the reduction of the Company’s substantial debts and refinancing (see news release dated March 20, 2025) and the restructuring and settlement of its convertible debentures (see news release dated June 20, 2025). As compensation, the Company had agreed to pay to Jaluca a fee equal to 6% of the total value of settled convertible debentures at an issue price of $0.10 per share, excluding those held by Jaluca (the “Fee“), subject to disinterested shareholder approval in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V and the approval of the TSX-V, which approvals have since been obtained.

Disinterested shareholders holding an aggregate of 112,752,806 common shares representing approximately 71.29% of the Company’s currently issued and outstanding common shares provided written consent to the Fee.

The Company has accordingly issued 4,380,000 Shares to Jaluca at a deemed issue price of $0.10 per Share in full satisfaction of the Fee. All of the Shares are subject to a hold period and may not be traded until November 17, 2025 except as permitted by appliable securities legislation.

2024 Bonus Program

The Company uses the bonus programs under its compensation agreements with management and staff as an element of variable compensation for officers, senior management and key employees of the Company. These bonuses are normally based on achieving certain milestones that are considered important for the development of the Company’s business, and if utilized, are normally based on pre-determined key performance indicators (“KPI”) and are paid upon achievement of the particular pre-determined KPI metrics.

Bonuses were granted to officers in 2024 in lieu of deferred or reduced compensation, with total deferred or reduced compensation discounted as deemed appropriate by the board of directors, to be paid via a combination of shares (70%) and cash (30%), subject to certain KPIs being met in 2025.

The full amount of these bonuses of $822,000 was fully accrued and disclosed in the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the compensation disclosed in the compensation table included in the Company’s Information Circular for its Annual General Meting held on June 25, 2025. The bonus is to be paid 70% in equity ($575,400) and 30% in cash (246,600).

To date in 2025, the 70% equity component of the bonus has been achieved, although none of the bonuses have yet been paid.

As a result, the Company intends to submit for TSXV acceptance the issuance of common shares to officers and key operating personnel based on the achievement of the 70% equity component of the bonus plan. The shares to be granted are proposed to be issued at the Discounted Market Price, as that term is defined in the TSX Listing Policy.
