##STR00001##

The present invention provides compounds of Formula I: ##STR00001##
pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and methods of using these compounds to treat or prevent a disease or disorder mediated by FXR and/or TGR5.

Disclosed herein are novel compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and related methods of their use. The compounds described herein are useful, e.g., as liposomal delivery vehicles to facilitate the delivery of encapsulated polynucleotides to target cells and subsequent iransfection of said target cells, and in certain embodiments are characterized as having one or more properties that afford such compounds advantages relative to other similarly classified lipids.

The invention provides for treating HBV or HDV infection or inhibiting human sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (hNTCP) with a polymeric bile acid or salt thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising a polymeric bile acid or salt thereof, and a second HBV or HDV medicament.

Disclosed are cationic lipids which are compounds of Formula I. Cationic lipids provided herein can be useful for delivery and expression of mRNA and encoded protein, e.g., as a component of liposomal delivery vehicle, and accordingly can be useful for treating various diseases, disorders and conditions, such as those associated with deficiency of one or more proteins. ##STR00001##

The invention concerns lipid assemblies, liposomes having an outer surface comprising a mixture of anionic and cationic moieties; wherein at least a portion of the cationic moieties are imino moieties that are essentially charged under physiological conditions, and their use for serum resistant transfection of cells.

The present invention provides compounds represented by Formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, stereoisomers, solvates, hydrates or combination thereof,

##STR00001##

The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and methods of using this compounds for treating FXR-mediated or TGR5-mediated diseases or conditions.

The present document describes compounds, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, of a core formula (I) where R.sub.1 features an amine group, particularly useful in the formulation of lipid particles including nucleic acid therapeutic agents, or proteins, or both, and for delivery of nucleic acid and protein therapeutics to cells in vivo or ex vivo, including anticancer and vaccine applications.

##STR00001##

Disclosed herein are methods of treating, reducing, or preventing a disease such as oral mucositis, gastric mucositis, or inflammatory fibrosis, comprising 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.

The invention relates to compounds of general formula (I): ##STR00001##
wherein R.sup.2a, R.sup.2b, R.sup.3a, R.sup.3b, R.sup.5, Y and R.sup.7 are as defined herein are selective agonists at the FXR receptor and are useful for the treatment or prevention of diseases and conditions including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH); primary biliary cirrhosis; primary sclerosing cholangitis; biliary atresia; cholestatic liver disease; hepatitis C infection; alcoholic liver disease; fibrosis; and liver damage arising from fibrosis.
