The disclosure herein provides compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the structure of Formula I:

##STR00001##

for the modulation of IL-17A, useful for the treatment of inflammatory conditions, such as psoriasis.

One aspect of the invention provides a composition of novel high penetration compositions (HPC) or a high penetration prodrug (HPP) for treatment of Parkinson's disease. The HPCs/HPPs are capable of being converted to parent active drugs or drug metabolites after crossing the biological barrier and thus can render treatments for the conditions that the parent drugs or metabolites can. Additionally, the HPPs are capable of reaching areas that parent drugs may not be able to access or to render a sufficient concentration at the target areas and therefore render novel treatments. The HPCs/HPPs can be administered to a subject through various administration routes, e.g., locally delivered to an action site of a condition with a high concentration or systematically administered to a biological subject and enter the general circulation with a faster rate.

Isoquinoline compounds for treating various diseases and pathologies are disclosed. More particularly, the present disclosure concerns the use of an isoquinoline compound or analogs thereof, in the treatment of disorders characterized by the activation of Wnt pathway signaling (e.g., cancer, abnormal cellular proliferation, angiogenesis, Alzheimer's disease, lung disease, inflammation, auto-immune diseases and osteoarthritis), the modulation of cellular events mediated by Wnt pathway signaling, as well as neurological conditions/disorders/diseases linked to overexpression of DYRK1A.

The present disclosure provides, inter alia, compounds to modulate GPX4 activity. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing same compounds. Further provided are methods for treating or ameliorating the effects of a cancer in a subject, methods of modulating GPX activity in a subject, methods of inducing ferroptosis in a cell, and methods for treating or ameliorating the effects of a cancer in a subject using the compounds or composition in combination with other therapeutic agents.

Compounds, such as cathinone derivatives, and pharmaceutical formulations that include the compounds. The compounds may have a first selectivity for a first receptor subtype that is at least 10 times greater than a second selectivity for a second receptor subtype from the same class of receptors. Methods of treating patients, which may include administering to a patient a pharmaceutical formulation that includes a compound, such as a cathinone derivative.
