The invention provides compositions and methods for treating neurological disorders, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal degeneration, and Alzheimer's disease, among others. Using the compositions and methods described herein, a patient having a neurological disorder, such as a neurological disorder associated with TAR-DNA binding protein (TDP)-43 aggregation, may be administered an inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) isoform 51A1 (CYP51A1), also referred to herein as lanosterol 14-alpha demethylase, so as to treat an underlying etiology of the disorder and/or to alleviate one or more symptoms of the disease. The inhibitor of CYP51A1 may be a small molecule, anti-CYP51A1 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, or a compound, such as an interfering RNA molecule, that attenuates CYP51A1 expression. Patients that may be treated using the compositions and methods described herein include those that express a mutant TDP-43 isoform containing a mutation associated with TDP-43-promoted aggregation and toxicity.

Compositions and methods for treating thrombosis, inflammation, and atherosclerosis by administration of a compound that binds to KRIT1 to inhibit binding with HEG1.

Compositions and methods for treating thrombosis, inflammation, and atherosclerosis by administration of a compound that binds to KRIT1 to inhibit binding with HEG1.

The invention is directed to a method of treatment for inflammation in mammals including inflammation caused by bacterial or viral infection, the method comprising administering to a mammal, including a human, in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

A compound of formula (I): for use in the prevention or treatment of a bacterial infection wherein: A is either S or Se; RA is selected from: wherein: each of Y.sup.1, Y.sup.2, Y.sup.3, Y.sup.4 and Y.sup.9 is independently selected from CH or N, wherein at least three of Y.sup.1, Y.sup.2, Y.sup.3, Y.sup.4 and Y.sup.9 is CH; V is selected from O, CH—OR.sup.01, N—CO.sub.2—R.sup.C2 or N—R.sup.N2; one of Y.sup.5, Y.sup.6, Y.sup.7 and Y.sup.8 is selected from CH and N, and the others are CH; X is selected from NH, S or O; R.sup.C1 is selected from O—R.sup.O2 or NHR.sup.N1; R.sup.O1 is selected from H and C.sub.1-3 unbranched alkyl; R.sup.O2 is C.sub.1-3 unbranched alkyl; R.sup.N1 is selected from H and C.sub.1-3 unbranched alkyl; R.sup.N2 is C.sub.1-3 unbranched alkyl; R.sup.C2 is either C.sub.1-3 unbranched alkyl or C.sub.3-4 branched alkyl; R.sup.C3 is selected from C.sub.1-3 unbranched alkyl and C.sub.2H.sub.4CO.sub.2H; R.sup.C4 is either H or Me; R.sup.C5 is either H or Me; R.sup.C6 represents one or two optional methyl substituents; and n is an integer from 2 to 8.
