The present invention relates to novel steroidal compounds of formula (I), process for preparation of the same and composition comprising these compounds. ##STR00001##

Described herein is the chemical structure of neurosteroid derivative compounds, methods of synthesizing the derivatives, and their uses in treating disorders, including those of the central nervous system. These compounds are readily synthesized and have improved pharmaceutical properties, including water solubility, compared to known neurosteroids.

The present invention provides compounds represented by Formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, stereoisomers, solvates, hydrates or combination thereof,

##STR00001##

The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and methods of using this compounds for treating FXR-mediated or TGR5-mediated diseases or conditions.

The invention relates to compositions and methods for the preparation, manufacture, and therapeutic use of compositions comprising mRNA and a lipid nanoparticle comprising a compound of the invention and an ionizable lipid.

Disclosed herein are methods of treating, reducing, or preventing a disease such as oral mucositis, gastric mucositis, or inflammatory fibrosis, comprising identifying a patient in need of treatment and administering a therapeutically effective amount of at least one cationic steroid antimicrobial (CSA), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Kits comprising such compositions and instructions on such methods are also contemplated herein.

The invention relates to compounds of general formula (I): ##STR00001##
wherein R.sup.2a, R.sup.2b, R.sup.3a, R.sup.3b, R.sup.5, Y and R.sup.7 are as defined herein are selective agonists at the FXR receptor and are useful for the treatment or prevention of diseases and conditions including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH); primary biliary cirrhosis; primary sclerosing cholangitis; biliary atresia; cholestatic liver disease; hepatitis C infection; alcoholic liver disease; fibrosis; and liver damage arising from fibrosis.

The present application relates to isotopically labeled compounds of Formula I and methods of preparation and use thereof

In one aspect, the disclosure relates to a facile strategy to introduce electron-deficient aryl sulfate diesters to silylated hydroxyl groups of carbohydrates and amino acids, among other substrates, wherein selective hydrolysis and the removal of an electron-deficient aromatic group allows for the efficient generation of sulfated carbohydrates, peptides, and other compounds. The incorporation of electron-deficient aryl sulfate diesters in the early stage of the synthesis of glycans, peptides, and the like, disclosed herein avoids time-consuming protecting group manipulations, simplifies the purification of sulfated products, and improves the overall yield and efficiency. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure.

Polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated glucocorticoid prodrugs, methods of preparation, and use for the treatment of diseases and disorders are disclosed. In particular, PEG-conjugated dexamethasone compounds and methods of using them for treating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, including but not limited to lupus, are disclosed.

Compounds are provided according to Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof; wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, and R.sup.8 are as defined herein. Compounds of the present invention are contemplated useful for the prevention and treatment of a variety of conditions.
