ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are compounds and compositions that modulate T-cells. Such compounds can be used to treat T-cell mediated disease like T-ALL, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and graft-vs-host disease (GvHD), to name but a few. The compounds have a general structure as shown in Formula I.in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?Ar1-L-Ar2 Iin-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?wherein Ar1and Ar2, are independent of one another, a substituted aryl, unsubstituted aryl, substituted heteroaryl, or unsubstituted heteroaryl; and L is a bond or a linker spanning two, three, four, or five atoms.
