Abstract: Provided is a method of increasing the stability of wild-type ?-glucocerebrosidase. Also provided are methods of treating and/or preventing an individual having a neurological disease in which increased expression or activity of ?-glucocerebrosidase in the central nervous system would be beneficial. This method comprises administering an effective amount of a pharmacologic chaperone for ?-glucocerebrosidase, with the proviso that the individual does not have a mutation in the gene encoding ?-glucocerebrosidase. Further provided are ?-glucocerebrosidase inhibitors which have been identified as specific pharmacologic chaperones and which have been shown to increase activity of ?-glucocerebrosidase in vivo in the central nervous system.

Abstract: Compounds, pharmaceutical compositions including the compounds, and methods of preparation and use thereof are disclosed. The compounds are triphenyl methane analogs. The compounds and compositions can be used to treat and/or prevent a wide variety of cancers, including drug resistant cancers, inflammatory, degenerative and vascular diseases, including various ocular diseases, and parasitic infections. Representative triphenyl methane analogs include triphenyl methane analogs of various dyes, hormones, sugars, peptides, oligonucleotides, amino acids, nucleotides, nucleosides, and polyols. The compounds are believed to function by inhibiting tNOX expression, the effects of ROS, and/or the production of HIF2. Thus, the compounds are novel therapeutic agents for a variety of cancers and other diseases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of BI 6727 or a salt thereof or the hydrate thereof for treating patients suffering from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) comprising the administration of a high dose of BI 6727 according to a specific dosage schedule, optionally in combination with cytarabine.
