Also provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of Formula (I) and methods of using the compounds, e.g., in the treatment of CNS-related disorders.

The present disclosure is directed to formulations comprising (1) at least one formulation transport agent, (2) at least one complexing agent, and (3) at least one active agent that modulates one or more traits of a target insect, plant, or plant pathogen. The present disclosure is also directed to methods of delivering such formulations to the target organism, as well as to formulation transport agents used to prepare such formulations.

Provided are labeling reagents and methods of using the reagents for cell uptake measurements. The labeling reagents can be quinone-masked probes including fluorophores and/or luminophores.

Various prodrug compounds having the general structure: Active agent-(acid)-(linker)-SO.sub.2NR.sub.1R.sub.2 are described herein. Compounds having this general structure were shown to be more orally active than the unmodified parent molecule.

Provided are a scroll preparing method using a two-dimensional material and a scroll prepared thereby. The scroll preparing method comprises preparing a two-dimensional material. The two-dimensional material is scrolled by providing an amphiphilic substance having a hydrophilic portion and a hydrophobic portion on the two-dimensional material. As a result, a scroll composite including the amphiphilic substance disposed inside a scroll structure is formed.

The present invention relates generally to compositions and methods for treating cancer and hypercortisolism. Provided herein are substituted steroidal derivative compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds. The subject compounds and compositions are useful for inhibition of glucocorticoid receptors. Furthermore, the subject compounds and compositions are useful for the treatment of cancer and hypercortisolism.

Compositions and methods for treating, reducing, or preventing a disease or symptom such as gingivitis, periodontitis, gastritis, colitis, ileitis, Crohn's disease, chronic inflammatory intestinal disease, inflammatory bowel syndrome, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, ulcerative colitis, a gastric ulcer, a peptic ulcer, a buccal ulcer, a nasopharyngeal ulcer, an esophageal ulcer, a duodenal ulcer, a gastrointestinal ulcer, an autoimmune disorder, or pain. The method includes identifying a patient in need of treatment and administering a therapeutically effective amount of at least one cationic steroid antimicrobial (CSA), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Kits comprising such compositions and instructions on such methods are also contemplated herein.

Provided herein is a compound of Formula (I):
