Disclosed herein is a class of molecules termed remodilins that are effective in treating asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and associated disorders. The molecules ameliorate asthma and pulmonary fibrosis symptoms by various mechanisms, including inhibiting airway smooth muscle contractile protein accumulation, reducing airway constrictor hyperresponsiveness, inhibiting bronchial fibroblast transformation into myofibroblasts, and/or treating or preventing airway or pulmonary fibrosis.

The present invention in general relates to the field of bioconjugation. More in particular, the invention relates to novel bioconjugation reactants based on an α,β unsaturated γ-hydroxylactam structure, amongst others allowing a higher degree of functionalization compared to classical bioconjugation reactants such as maleimide. The present invention also provides methods of preparing the novel bioconjugation reactants, as well as uses thereof in human and/or veterinary medicine; and conjugation processes.

The present invention relates to novel heterocyclic compounds of the general formula (I) their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutically acceptable solvates, enantiomers, diastereomers and polymorphs. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of the compounds of invention, pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and their use as the compounds of the invention belong to the family of NOD-like receptor family (NLR) protein NLRP3 modulators. The present invention thus relates to novel NLRP3 modulators as well as to the use of the novel inhibitor compounds in the treatment of diseases or conditions in which interleukin 1β activity is implicated.
