Abstract

This disclosure relates to compounds that act as activators of the NRF2/KEAP1/ARE pathway. Specifically, the compounds provided herein can act as high affinity reversible bindings for the NRF2 inhibitor, KEAP1. In some cases, NRF2/KEAP1/ARE pathway activation compounds are capable of repressing expression of inflammatory markers and/or reducing levels of TNFa to provide neuroprotective anti-inflammatory effects in the CNS. Such compounds are useful in the treatment of a variety of diseases including Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, inflammation, and cancer.
