Described herein, inter alia, are Nurr1 receptor modulators and uses thereof. In an aspect is provided a method for treating a disease associated with dysregulation and/or degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the central nervous system of a subject in need thereof, the method including administering to the subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described herein.

Two series of ω-phenoxy contained acylhydroxamic acids as novel urease inhibitors were designed and synthesized. Biological activity evaluations revealed that ω-phenoxypropinoylhydroxamic acids were more active than phenoxyacetohydroxamic acids. Out of these compounds, 3-(3,4-dichlorophenoxy)propionylhydroxamic acid c24 showed significant potency against urease in both cell free extract (IC50 = 0.061 ± 0.003 μM) and intact cell (IC50 = 0.89 ± 0.05 μM), being over 450- and 120-fold more potent than the clinically prescribed urease inhibitor AHA, repectively. Non-linear fitting of experimental data (V-[S]) suggested a mixed-type inhibition mechanism and a dual site binding mode of these compounds.

The invention is directed to substituted pyrrolidine derivatives. Specifically, the invention is directed to compounds according to Formula III: wherein A, B, L1, L2, L3, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R9, R10, R30, Y1, Y2, z2, z4, z5, and z6 are as defined herein, and salts thereof.

Osteoarthritis is a disabling disease characterized by the articular cartilage breakdown. Aggrecanases are potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of this pathology. At the starting point of this project, an acylthiosemicarbazide was discovered to inhibit aggrecanase-2. The acylthiosemicarbazide Zn binding group is also a convenient linker for library synthesis. A focused library of 920 analogs was thus prepared and screened to establish structure-activity relationships. The modification of the acylthiosemicarbazide was also explored. This strategy combining library design and discrete compounds synthesis yielded inhibitor 35, that is highly selective for aggrecanases over a panel of metalloproteases and inhibits the degradation of native fully glycosylated aggrecan. A docking study generated binding conformations explaining the structure-activity relationships.
