Methods and therapeutic compositions are disclosed for treating neurological disorders, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and/or Huntington's disease, using Salubrinal analogs, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, or solvates thereof.

The present invention provides compounds and methods for the treatment of LFA-1 mediated diseases. In particular, LFA-1 antagonists are described herein and these antagonists are used in the treatment of LFA-1 mediated diseases. One aspect of the invention provides for diagnosis of an LFA-1 mediated disease and administration of a LFA-1 antagonist, after the patient is diagnosed with a LFA-1 mediated disease. In some embodiments, the LFA-1 mediated diseases treated are dry eye disorders. Also provided herein are methods for identifying compounds which are LFA-1 antagonists.
