This disclosure relates to asparagine endopeptidase inhibitors and compositions and uses related thereto. In certain embodiments, the asparagine endopeptidase inhibitors are useful for improving memory, treating or preventing cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and cognitive disorders. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising an asparagine endopeptidase inhibitor and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

The present invention provides for certain sulfonyl ureas and related compounds which have advantageous properties and show useful activity in the inhibition of activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Such compounds are useful in the treatment of a wide range of disorders in which the inflammation process, or more specifically the NLRP3 inflammasome, have been implicated as being a key factor.
