Disclosed herein are methods and compounds of augmenting and enhancing the production of type I IFNs in vivo. In some embodiments, the compounds disclosed herein are ENPP-1 inhibitors, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for the treatment of cancer or a viral infection.

Disclosed are 1,3-Dioxoindene derivatives, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or enantiomers, a preparation method thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of viral diseases, comprising the same as an active ingredient. The 1,3-Dioxoindene derivatives have excellent inhibitory activity against picornaviruses including coxsackie-, entero-, echo-, Polio-, and rhinoviruses, as well as exhibiting low cytotoxicity, so that they can be useful as an active ingredient of a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of viral diseases including poliomyelitis, paralysis, acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis, viral meningitis, hand-foot-and-mouth disease, vesicular disease, hepatitis A, myositis, myocarditis, pancreatitis, diabetes, epidemic myalgia, encephalitis, cold, herpangina, foot-and-mouth disease, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, sinusitis or otitis media.

The present invention also relates to process for the preparation of N-(4-(6,7-dimethoxy quinolin-4-yloxy)phenyl)-N′-(4-fluorophenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide (S)-malate compound of formula-1a and its polymorphs thereof, represented by the following structural: ##STR00001##

The invention relates to an aromatic compound, pharmaceutical composition comprising the same, and a method for preparing the compound and an intermediate thereof. The invention also relates to use of the compound for the manufacture of a medicament for the prevention or treatment of a PPAR-related disease.

Disclosed herein are compounds, compositions, and methods for reactivating or realkylating aged acetylcholinesterase inhibited by or conjugated to the organophosphorus compound. The organophosphorus compound can be a nerve agent. The acetylcholinesterase can be in the central nerve system (CNS) and/or the peripheral nervous system (PNS) of a subject. Accordingly, methods for ameliorating, diminishing, reversing, treating or preventing the toxic effects of an organophosphorus compound in a subject are provided herein. Methods for prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of exposure to an organophosphorus nerve agent are also provided.

Provided are a compound represented by the following Formula (III), a tautomer or stereoisomer of the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof used as a therapeutic agent for gout or hyperuricemia. (In the Formula (III), R.sup.1a, R.sup.2a, R.sup.6a, and R.sup.7a represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, or a cyano group, R.sup.3a and R.sup.8a form a benzene ring or a 5-membered heteroaryl ring containing 1 to 3 heteroatoms, as a ring constituent element, selected from nitrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, and sulfur atoms together with two carbon atoms to which R.sup.3a and R.sup.8a are bonded, R.sup.4a and R.sup.5a form a benzene ring together with two carbon atoms to which R.sup.4a and R.sup.5a are bonded or represent any of the groups represented by R.sup.1a described above, W.sup.a represents CR.sup.10a or N, and where, R.sup.10a represents any of the groups represented by R.sup.1a, X.sup.a represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, Y.sup.a represents an alkylene chain having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and where, the alkylene chain may be substituted with an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms and the alkylene chain may be a linear or branched alkylene chain, the branched alkylene chain may have a 3- to 7-membered ring formed by side chains bonded to carbon atoms which are the same as or different from each other, together with the carbon atoms to which the side chains are bonded and may have a double bond in the middle thereof, and Z.sup.a represents CO.sub.2H.)
