Novel compounds usable in modulating an activity or function of a voltage-dependent potassium channel and/or of TRPV1 are provided. The compounds are represented by Formula I as described and defined in the specification.

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for the detection and treatment of cancer. Specifically, the compositions of the present technology include novel radiohalogenated (e.g., radioiodinated) PSMA targeting agents and methods of using the same in diagnostic imaging as well as radiation therapy.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I):

##STR00001##

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate, solvate, or prodrug thereof, wherein U, J, V, X, R.sup.1a, R.sup.2b, R.sup.2c, R.sup.5 and t are as described herein. The present invention relates generally to inhibitors of histone deacetylase and to methods of making and using them. These compounds are useful for promoting cognitive function and enhancing learning and memory formation. In addition, these compounds are useful for treating, alleviating, and/or preventing various conditions, including for example, neurological disorders, memory and cognitive function disorders/impairments, extinction learning disorders, fungal diseases and infections, inflammatory diseases, hematological diseases, and neoplastic diseases in humans and animals.

Disclosed are substantially pure L-y-methyleneglutamine, L-y-methyleneglutamic acid, and/or amide derivatives, and methods of use thereof. In particular, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to L-y-methyleneglutamine, L-y-methyleneglutamic acid, and/or amide derivatives thereof, and methods of treating cancer. The method comprises administering one or more substantially pure L-y-methyleneglutamine, L-y-methyleneglutamic acid, and/or amide derivatives to a subject in need thereof.

The invention relates to plasminogen activator-1 (PAI-1) inhibitor compounds and uses thereof in the treatment of any disease or disorder associated with elevated PAI-1. The invention includes, but is not limited to, the use of such compounds to prevent or reduce thrombosis and fibrosis, to promote thrombolysis, and to modulate lipid metabolism and treat diseases or disorders associated with elevated PAI-1, cholesterol, or lipid levels.

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.
