In its many embodiments, the present invention provides substituted cyanopyridine containing compounds of the Formula (I): and acceptable salts thereof, wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, X, Y, Q, and the moiety are as defined herein. The novel compounds of the invention, and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising a compound thereof, are useful as Liver X- receptor (LXR) agonists, and may be useful for treating or preventing pathologies related thereto. Such pathologies include, but are not limited to, inflammatory diseases and diseases characterized by defects in cholesterol and lipid metabolism, such as Alzheimer's disease. ##STR00001##

Provided are novel types of hybrid cyclic libraries that contain a known protein binding domain of a natural product. Also provided are synthetic methods to make such libraries and methods for the deconvolution of hits using partially split-pooled library compounds. Such methods are applicable for use with the entire human proteome to screen such libraries that bind and for the identification of hits.
