Abstract: Provided herein are compounds of Formulae (RL), (I), (II), (III), (IV), and (V), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, prodrugs, and isotopically labeled derivatives thereof. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions, kits, and methods involving the inventive compounds for the treatment of metabolic disorders (e.g., diabetes, hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, obesity). The compound are useful as substrate selective inhibitors of insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE).

Abstract: Provided herein are systems, compositions, and methods of introducing protective and/or loss-of-function variants of CCR5 and CCR2. Variants may be introduced using a CRISPR/Cas9-based nucleobase editor or other guide nucleotide sequence-programmable DNA binding protein domain-based fusion protein described herein. Further provided herein are compositions and methods of preventing and treating conditions related to HIV infection and progression as well as to AIDS.

Abstract: Macrocyclic compounds that specifically inhibit insulin degrading enzyme (IDE) are provided. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, stereoisomers, polymorphs, tautomers, isotopically enriched forms, and prodrugs of the macrocyclic IDE inhibitors are also described. Pharmaceutical compositions are also provided. In vivo and in vitro methods of using the IDE inhibitor, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the IDE inhibitor, for example, for the inhibition of IDE in a subject exhibiting aberrant IDE activity, impaired insulin signaling, or insulin resistance, for example, a subject having diabetes, are also provided.

Abstract: IDE-binding probes and assays for the identification of IDE-binding and IDE-inhibiting compounds are provided. Pharmaceutical compositions of macrocyclic IDE inhibitors are also provided, including compositions in which such IDE inhibitors are combined with an additional therapeutic agent. Methods of using IDE inhibitors for transiently inhibiting IDE in a subject in need thereof, for example, for the transient inhibition of IDE in a subject exhibiting aberrant IDE activity, impaired isulin signaling, or insulin resistance, for example, a subject having diabetes, are also provided. Methods of using IDE inhibitors for transiently modulating heart rate and/or blood pressure in a subject are also provided.
