Abstract: Methods of treating polyQ diseases or disorders such as Huntington’s Disease are presented. Compounds of the disclosure are capable of binding directly to the polyQ segment of mutated huntingtin. This binding results in at least partial reversal of the conformation of mutated huntingtin to wild type huntingtin. The binding also facilitates autophagic removal of misfolded and/or mutated proteins such as mutated huntingtin.

Abstract: Compounds of formula (I): wherein: R1 represents substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl; Y represents —(CRnaRnb)n—; Rna and Rnb are each independently hydrogen or C1-6alkyl; n is an integer from 0 to 5; R2 represents unsubstituted or substituted aryl or unsubstituted or substituted heteroaryl; R3 and R4 each independently represent hydrogen or C1-6-alkyl; R7 represents hydrogen or C1-6alkyl; R8 represents hydrogen or C1-6alkyl; and salts and solvates thereof; are CCR3 antagonists and are thus indicated to be useful in therapy.

Abstract: There are provided according to the invention, novel compounds of formula (I) wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, X, a, b and Z are as defined in the specification, processes for preparing them, formulations containing them and their use in therapy for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
