Abstract:
Provided herein are novel irreversible sialidase inhibitors. These compounds can be conjugated with a detectable tagging moiety such as azide-annexed biotin via CuAAC for isolation and identification of sialidases. The provided compounds and the corresponding detectable conjugates are useful for detecting sialidase-containing pathogens and imaging in situ sialidase activities under physiological conditions.
Abstract:
Provided are azido-BODIPY compounds of formula (I), cyclooctyne-based fluorogenic probes of formula (IV), and activity-based probes of formula (VI). These compounds undergo azide-alkyne cycloadditions (AAC) with to form triazolyl products. The provided compounds are useful for detection and imaging of alkyne-, or azide-containing molecules. Methods for detection and imaging biomolecules using compounds of the present disclosure are disclosed.
Abstract:
The present invention provides novel compounds of Formula (I), and pharmaceutically compositions thereof. Compounds of Formula (I) are inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs) and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase (HMGR). Also provided are methods of using the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions for inhibiting the activity of HDACs and HMGR, treating diseases associated with HDACs or HMGR (e.g., cancer, hypercholesterolemia, an acute or chronic inflammatory disease, autoimmune disease, allergic disease, pathogen infection, neurodegenerative disease, and a disease associated with oxidative stress), or inhibiting drug resistance of cancer cells.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides a new use of adenosine analogs for the treatment of pain through activation of neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor signaling pathway, thereby inducing the activation of M-type potassium channel to induce outward currents. A method and pharmaceutical composition for treating pain comprising an adenonsine analog that activates NK1 receptor signaling, thereby inducing outward current are also provided.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides compounds of Formulas (I′) and (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds described herein may be useful in treating and/or preventing proliferative diseases (e.g., cancer). Also provided in the present disclosure are pharmaceutical compositions, kits, and uses thereof for treating proliferative diseases.
Abstract:
The present invention provides therapeutic agents for preventing and treating neurodegenerative diseases. These agents synergistically target both the adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) and the equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (ENT1).
Abstract:
Methods for treating pain such as fibromyalgia, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of an adenosine analog, wherein the adenosine analog may be a compound of Formula (I): (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the adenosine analog for use in treating pain (e.g., fibromyalgia), optionally further comprising Substance P (SP), are also provided.

Abstract:
Methods and compositions for detection of drug resistant pathogens and treatment against infections thereof are provided. Methods for detection of oseltamivir-resistant influenza viruses by competitive binding assays utilizing non-oseltamivir influenza virus neuraminidase inhibitors and oseltamivir carboxylate are provided. Influenza virus neuraminidase inhibitors coupled to sensors and useful for employment in the methods of the invention are disclosed. Novel phosphonate compounds active as neuraminidase inhibitors against wild-type and oseltamivir-resistant influenza strains of H1N1, H5N1 and H3N2 viruses are disclosed. An enantioselective synthetic route to preparation of these phosphonate compounds via sialic acid is provided.
