     FIELD OF INVENTION 
     The present invention is directed to modulators of a nuclear hormone receptor, farnesoid X receptor (FXR), useful in the treatment of diseases or disorders associated with FXR proteins. Specifically, the invention is related to compounds and compositions which modulate FXR, methods of treating diseases or disorders associated with FXR, and methods of synthesis of these compounds. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     FXR is a ligand-activated transcription factor. Upon binding of a ligand, FXR either binds to DNA at the FXR response elements (FXREs) as a monomer, or forms a heterodimer with retinoid X receptor (RXR) and then binds to FXREs, regulating the transcription of a variety of target genes. To date, more than 40 FXR target genes have been identified that are involved in a wide range of physiological functions including bile acid homeostasis (i.e., BACS, BAAT, BSEP, FGF15/19, etc.), cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism (i.e., Apolipoprotein C-I, II, IV, Apolipoprotein E, MIDR3, Human complement C3, ApoA-1, hepatic lipase, SREPB-1c), glucose metabolism (i.e., PEPCK, GSK3, AKR1B7, GLUT4, G6Pase), and xenobiotics metabolism (i.e., GSTα3, GSTα4, GSTμ1, GSTμ3, SULT1A1, SULT1A2). In addition to the regulation of metabolic related genes, recent results have identified FXR as a regulator of cellular inflammatory and immune responses. Activation of FXR can provide anti-inflammatory effects by negative regulation of nuclear factor KB (NFκB) pathway, reducing the expression of NFκB and the many pro-inflammatory cytokines associated with this pathway (Matsubara, T. et al., “FXR signaling in the enterohepatic system,”  Mol. Cell Endocrinol.  2013, 368, 17-29; Moschetta, A., “Deciphering the nuclear bile acid receptor FXR paradigm,”  Nucl. Recept. Signal.,  2010, 8, e005; Huang, W., et al., “FXR: a metabolic regulator and cell protector,”  Cell Res.,  2008, 1087-1095). 
     FXR plays a key role in the synthesis, transport and metabolism of bile acids (BAs) and the many physiological and pathophysiological conditions that involve BAs. In the liver, activation of FXR has been shown to lead to the increased expression of short heterodimer partner (SHP), which in turn inactivates liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1) and inhibits the cholesterol 7-alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), the rate-limiting enzyme in the first step of biosynthesis of primary bile acids from cholesterol, thereby reduces the production of bile acids. Activation of FXR in the liver has also been shown to downregulate transporters like Na-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) and organic anion-transporting peptides (OATPs) preventing the uptake of bile acids to liver. The accumulation of BAs in the liver plays a pivotal role in cholestasis-associated liver damage, pharmacological activation of FXR by synthetic ligands can provide therapeutic intervention. 
     FXR has also been shown to play an important role in the inflammation control of various liver and intestinal diseases (Shaik, F. B., et al., “Role of farnesoid X receptor in inflammation and resolution,”  Inflamm. Res.  2015, 64, 9-20). Activation of FXR has been shown to repress the NFκB pathway, a prototypical proinflammatory signaling pathway, and inhibit the expression of key cytokines such as TNFα, IL-1β, and IL-6. In the colon of FXR knockout mice, increased expression of both proinflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNFα, IL-1β, IFNγ) and profibrotic genes (i.e., Collagen α1, TIMP-1, and αSMA) has been observed, indicative of dysregulation in intestinal immunity and tissue remodeling. Activation of FXR with FXR activators in the TNBS induced murine inflammatory bowel disease model has been shown to inhibit the above cytokines and provide protection against inflammation and fibrosis, subsequently against the development of colitis (Vavassori, P., “The bile acid receptor FXR is a modulator of intestinal innate immunity,”  J. Immunol.  2009, 183, 6251-6261). Moreover, treatment with an FXR agonist in a rat model of cholestatic liver injury (bile-duct ligation) reduced NK cells and INFγ expression, leading to reduction in intestinal inflammation, reduction in bacterial translocation, and overall improvement in gut barrier function (Verbeke, L., “The FXR agonist obeticholic acid prevents gut barrier dysfunction and bacterial translocation in cholestatic rats,”  Am. J. Pathol.  2015, 185, 409-419). 
     Activation of FXR with small molecule activators has the potential to be a treatment for a range of diseases including bile acid related disorders, metabolic syndrome, type-2-diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), fatty liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), inflammatory autoimmune diseases, Crohn&#39;s disease, multiple sclerosis, atherosclerosis, hepatic and colon cancers, and other disorders. However, known FXR activators have demonstrated toxicities, treatment limiting adverse effects, and other issues. For these reasons, there remains a need for novel and potent small molecule FXR activators.

     The details of the invention are set forth in the accompanying description below. Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, illustrative methods and materials are now described. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and from the claims. In the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms also include the plural unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. All patents and publications cited in this specification are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. 
     Definitions 
     The articles “a” and “an” are used herein to refer to one or more than one (e.g., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article. By way of example, “an element” means one element or more than one element. 
     The term “and/or” is used herein to mean either “and” or “or” unless indicated otherwise. 
     The term “optionally substituted” is understood to mean that a given chemical moiety (e.g., an alkyl group) can (but is not required to) be bonded other substituents (e.g., heteroatoms). For instance, an alkyl group that is optionally substituted can be a fully saturated alkyl chain (e.g., a pure hydrocarbon). Alternatively, the same optionally substituted alkyl group can have substituents different from hydrogen. For instance, it can, at any point along the chain be bounded to a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, or any other substituent described herein. Thus the term “optionally substituted” means that a given chemical moiety has the potential to contain other functional groups, but does not necessarily have any further functional groups. Suitable substituents used in the optional substitution of the described groups include, without limitation, halogen, oxo, —OH, —CN, —COOH, —CH 2 CN, —O—(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, (C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, (C 1 -C 6 ) alkenyl, (C 1 -C 6 ) alkynyl, (C 1 -C 6 ) hydroxyalkyl, (C 1 -C 6 ) alkoxy, (C 1 -C 6 ) haloalkyl, (C 1 -C 6 )haloalkoxy, (C 3 -C 7 ) cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocycloalkyl, heteroaryl, —O—(C 2 -C 6 ) alkenyl, —O—(C 2 -C 6 ) alkynyl, (C 2 -C 6 ) alkenyl, (C 2 -C 6 ) alkynyl, —OP(O)(OH) 2 , —OC(O)(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, —C(O)(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, —OC(O)O(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, —NH 2 , —NH((C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl), —N((C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl) 2 , —NHC(O)(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, —C(O)NH(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, —S(O) 2 (C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, —S(O) 2 NH(C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, and S(O) 2 N((C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl) 2 . “Optionally substituted” as used herein also refers to substituted or unsubstituted whose meaning is described below. 
     As used herein, the term “substituted” means that the specified group or moiety bears one or more suitable substituents wherein the substituents may connect to the specified group or moiety at one or more positions. For example, an aryl substituted with a cycloalkyl may indicate that the cycloalkyl connects to one atom of the aryl with a bond or by fusing with the aryl and sharing two or more common atoms. 
     As used herein, the term “unsubstituted” means that the specified group bears no substituents. 
     Unless otherwise specifically defined, the term “aryl” refers to cyclic, aromatic hydrocarbon groups that have 1 to 3 aromatic rings, including monocyclic or bicyclic groups such as phenyl, biphenyl or naphthyl. Where containing two aromatic rings (bicyclic, etc.), the aromatic rings of the aryl group may be joined at a single point (e.g., biphenyl), or fused (e.g., naphthyl). The aryl group may be optionally substituted by one or more substituents, e.g., 1 to 5 substituents, at any point of attachment.

     In another embodiment of the invention, the compounds of Formula (I) are enantiomers. In some embodiments the compounds are the (S)-enantiomer. In other embodiments the compounds are the (R)-enantiomer. In yet other embodiments, the compounds of Formula (I) may be (+) or (−) enantiomers. 
     In another embodiment of the invention, the compounds of Formula (I) are diastereomers. 
     It should be understood that all isomeric forms are included within the present invention, including mixtures thereof. If the compound contains a double bond, the substituent may be in the E or Z configuration. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl, the cycloalkyl substituent may have a cis- or trans configuration. All tautomeric forms are also intended to be included. 
     Compounds of the invention, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, solvates, stereoisomers and prodrugs thereof may exist in their tautomeric form (for example, as an amide or imino ether). All such tautomeric forms are contemplated herein as part of the present invention. 
     The compounds of the invention may contain asymmetric or chiral centers, and, therefore, exist in different stereoisomeric forms. It is intended that all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of the invention as well as mixtures thereof, including racemic mixtures, form part of the present invention. In addition, the present invention embraces all geometric and positional isomers. For example, if a compound of the invention incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, both the cis- and trans-forms, as well as mixtures, are embraced within the scope of the invention. Each compound herein disclosed includes all the enantiomers that conform to the general structure of the compound. The compounds may be in a racemic or enantiomerically pure form, or any other form in terms of stereochemistry. The assay results may reflect the data collected for the racemic form, the enantiomerically pure form, or any other form in terms of stereochemistry. 
     Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as, for example, by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher&#39;s acid chloride), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. Also, some of the compounds of the invention may be atropisomers (e.g., substituted biaryls) and are considered as part of this invention. Enantiomers can also be separated by use of a chiral HPLC column. 
     It is also possible that the compounds of the invention may exist in different tautomeric forms, and all such forms are embraced within the scope of the invention. Also, for example, all keto-enol and imine-enamine forms of the compounds are included in the invention. 
     All stereoisomers (for example, geometric isomers, optical isomers and the like) of the present compounds (including those of the salts, solvates, esters and prodrugs of the compounds as well as the salts, solvates and esters of the prodrugs), such as those which may exist due to asymmetric carbons on various substituents, including enantiomeric forms (which may exist even in the absence of asymmetric carbons), rotameric forms, atropisomers, and diastereomeric forms, are contemplated within the scope of this invention, as are positional isomers (such as, for example, 4-pyridyl and 3-pyridyl). (For example, if a compound of Formula (I) incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, both the cis- and trans-forms, as well as mixtures, are embraced within the scope of the invention. Also, for example, all keto-enol and imine-enamine forms of the compounds are included in the invention.) Individual stereoisomers of the compounds of the invention may, for example, be substantially free of other isomers, or may be admixed, for example, as racemates or with all other, or other selected, stereoisomers. The chiral centers of the present invention can have the S or R configuration as defined by the IUPAC 1974 Recommendations. The use of the terms “salt”, “solvate”, “ester,” “prodrug” and the like, is intended to equally apply to the salt, solvate, ester and prodrug of enantiomers, stereoisomers, rotamers, tautomers, positional isomers, racemates or prodrugs of the inventive compounds. 
     The compounds of Formula I may form salts which are also within the scope of this invention. Reference to a compound of the Formula herein is understood to include reference to salts thereof, unless otherwise indicated. 
     The present invention relates to compounds which are modulators of FXR. In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are activators (agonists) of FXR.

     The compounds of the present invention may be made by a variety of methods, including standard chemistry. Suitable synthetic routes are depicted in the Schemes given below. 
     The compounds of Formula (I) may be prepared by methods known in the art of organic synthesis as set forth in part by the following synthetic schemes. In the schemes described below, it is well understood that protecting groups for sensitive or reactive groups are employed where necessary in accordance with general principles or chemistry. Protecting groups are manipulated according to standard methods of organic synthesis (T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, Third edition, Wiley, New York 1999). These groups are removed at a convenient stage of the compound synthesis using methods that are readily apparent to those skilled in the art. The selection processes, as well as the reaction conditions and order of their execution, shall be consistent with the preparation of compounds of Formula (I). 
     Those skilled in the art will recognize if a stereocenter exists in the compounds of Formula (I). Accordingly, the present invention includes both possible stereoisomers (unless specified in the synthesis) and includes not only racemic compounds but the individual enantiomers and/or diastereomers as well. When a compound is desired as a single enantiomer or diastereomer, it may be obtained by stereospecific synthesis or by resolution of the final product or any convenient intermediate. Resolution of the final product, an intermediate, or a starting material may be affected by any suitable method known in the art. See, for example, “Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds” by E. L. Eliel, S. H. Wilen, and L. N. Mander (Wiley-Interscience, 1994). 
     The compounds described herein may be made from commercially available starting materials or synthesized using known organic, inorganic, and/or enzymatic processes.

     wherein A, B, and R 8 -R 4 , are defined as in Formula (I), R 3b  is an alkyl group, X is halogen (i.e., C 1 , F, etc.) or another suitable leaving group (i.e., mesylate), and PG is a protecting group (i.e., tert-butyl carbonate (BOC)). 
     The general manner of preparing target compounds of Formula (I) by using intermediates 2a-2f, 2g1, 2g2, 2h1, 2h2, 2i1, 2i2, 2j, 2k1, and 2k2, is outlined above in General Scheme 1. Condensation of aldehyde 2a, with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of a base (i.e., sodium hydroxide (NaOH)) and in a solvent (i.e., water (H 2 O) and/or ethanol (EtOH)) optionally at elevated temperature provides intermediate 2b. Intermediate 2c is then prepared by treatment of 2b with a chlorinating agent, i.e. N-chlorosuccinimide in a solvent (i.e., N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)). Cyclization of 2c with beta-keto ester 2d in the presence of a base (i.e., NEt 3 , NaOMe, and or tBuOK) and in a solvent (i.e., dichloromethane) yields intermediate 2e. Hydrolysis of 2e in the presence of a base (i.e., lithium hydroxide monohydrate) and in a solvent (i.e., EtOH/H 2 O) optionally at elevated temperature generates the acid 2f. Acid 2f is treated with activating agent (i.e., 1,1′-Carbonyldiimidazole (CDI)) and then reacted with protected 3-hydroxyl-aza-bicycloheptane intermediate 2g1 or 2g2 in a solvent (i.e., DMF) optionally at elevated temperature to form ester 2h1 or 2h2. Alternatively, acid 2f can be converted to an acid chloride using a chlorinating agent (i.e., thienyl chloride) in a solvent (i.e., DMF) and then reacted with protected 3-hydroxyl-aza-bicycloheptane intermediate 2g1 or 2g2 in the presence of DMAP and a base (i.e., triethylamine (Et 3 N)) and in a solvent (i.e., DMF) to form ester 2h1 or 2h2. 
     Deprotection of intermediate 2h1 or 2h2 (i.e., when PG is an acid labile group, i.e., BOC) in the presence of a strong acid (i.e., trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)) and in a solvent (i.e., dichloromethane (DCM)) affords the intermediate 2i1 or 2i2. Coupling of 2i1 or 2i2 with 2j, wherein R 4  in reagent 2j is optionally protected, using a catalytic amount of a palladium catalyst and ligand (i.e., palladium (II) acetate (Pd(OAc) 2 ) and 1,1′-Ferrocenediyl-bis(diphenylphosphine) (dppf)) and acetic anhydride in a solvent, e.g., DMF, at elevated temperature affords the desired product of Formula (I) when R 4  is unprotected, or advanced intermediate 2k1 or 2k2 when R 4  is protected. Alternatively, 2i1 or 2i2 and 2j, wherein R 4  in reagent 2j is optionally protected, are treated with a base in a solvent and optionally at elevated temperature to afford the desired product of Formula (I) when R 4  is unprotected, or advanced intermediate 2k1 or 2k2 when R 4  is protected. Deprotection intermediate 2k1 or 2k2 provides the desired product of Formula (I). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein A, B, R 1 -R 4  and L 1  are defined as in Formula (I). 
     The general manner of preparing target compounds of Formula (I) wherein L 1  is —(CH 2 ) m (C═O)—, X 1  is CH 2 , and X 2  is NR x , by using intermediates 2f and 3a through 3i, is outlined above in General Scheme 2 Reduction of intermediate 2f using a reducing agent (i.e., lithium aluminum hydride (LAH)) in a solvent (i.e., tetrahydrofuran (THF)) provides alcohol 3a. Treatment of alcohol 3a with thienyl chloride in a solvent (i.e., DCM) provides chloride 3b. Cyanation of 3b in the presence of potassium cyanide or sodium cyanide in a solvent (i.e., water) optionally at elevated temperature affords intermediate 3c. Hydrolysis of nitrile 3c using a base (i.e., sodium hydroxide (NaOH)) in a solvent (i.e., H 2 O and/or EtOH) and optionally at elevated temperature provides 3d. Alternatively, Alcohol 3a can be oxidized to the aldehyde 3e, which is further converted to the two carbon elongated α,β-unsaturated ester 3f via a standard Wittig reaction conditions (i.e., (Carboxymethyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide ethyl ester, a base (i.e., potassium tert-butoxide) and a solvent (i.e., THF)). Hydrogenation of 3f in the presence of a metal catalyst (i.e., palladium on carbon), hydrogen gas and in a solvent (i.e., DCM) and subsequent hydrolysis of the resulting ester in the presence of a base (i.e., lithium hydroxide monohydrate) and in a solvent (i.e., EtOH/H 2 O) optionally at elevated temperature provides acid 3g. 3d or 3h and 3-hydroxyl-aza-bicycloheptane intermediate 2g1 are coupled using standard acylation conditions (i.e., treatment of 3h and 2g1 with DMAP and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide in a solvent (i.e., DCM)) to form the ester 3i. Intermediate 3i can be converted to the desired product of Formula (I) as described above in steps 6 to 8 of General Scheme 1. Compounds of Formula (I) can also be synthesized as described above in steps 1 to 8 of General Scheme 2 and steps 6 to 8 of General Scheme 1 from hydroxyl-aza-bicycloheptane intermediate 2g2. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein A, B, and R 1 -R 4  are defined as in Formula (I) 
     Alternatively compounds of Formula (I) wherein L 1  is (C═O) and L 2  is —S(O) 2 —, X 1  is CH 2  and X 2  is NR x  can be prepared using intermediates 2i1, 2i2, 4a, 4b1, and 4b2, as outlined above in General Scheme 3. Sulfonation of the ester-substituted intermediate 2i1 or 2i2 with a substituted sulfonyl chloride 4a in the presence of a base (i.e., N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEA)) and in a solvent (i.e., DCM) affords the sulfonamide compound intermediate 4b1 or 4b2. Deprotection of intermediate 4b1 provides the desired product of Formula (I). Alternatively, deprotection of intermediate 4b2 provides the desired product of Formula (I). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein A, B, and R 8 -R 4  are defined as in Formula (I) 
     Alternatively compounds of Formula (I) wherein L 1  is —(CH 2 ) p — can be prepared using intermediates 2e, 2g2, 2j, 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, and 4c, as outlined above in General Scheme 4. Reduction of intermediate 2e using a reducing agent (i.e., lithium aluminum hydride (LAH)) in a solvent (i.e., tetrahydrofuran (THF)) provides alcohol 3a. Treatment of alcohol 3a with thienyl chloride in a solvent (i.e., DCM) provides chloride 3b. Nucleophilic addition of 2g1 to 3b in the presence of a base (i.e., sodium hydride (NaH)) and in a solvent (i.e., THF) provides 4a. Deprotection of intermediate 4a (i.e., when PG is an acid labile group, i.e., BOC) in the presence of a strong acid (i.e., trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)) and in a solvent (i.e., dichloromethane (DCM)) affords the intermediate 4b. Alternatively deprotection of intermediate 4a when PG is benzyloxycarbamate (Cbz) in the presence of a palladium catalyst (i.e., palladium on carbon), hydrogen gas, and in a solvent (i.e., dichloromethane (DCM)) also affords the intermediate 4b. Coupling of 4b with 2j, wherein R 4  in reagent 2j is optionally protected, using a catalytic amount of a palladium catalyst and ligand (i.e., palladium (II) acetate (Pd(OAc) 2 ) and 1,1′-Ferrocenediyl-bis(diphenylphosphine) (dppf)) and acetic anhydride in a solvent, e.g., DMF, at elevated temperature provides intermediate 4c. Deprotection intermediate 4c provides the desired product of Formula (I).

     A suspension of 4-(((1S,4S,5R)-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-5-yloxy)methyl)-5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)isoxazole hydroiodide salt 12dd (0.52 mmol, 1 equiv.), methyl 4-bromo-2/3-substituted benzoate 106-y (0.68 mmol, 1.3 equiv.), Cs 2 CO 3  (1.3 mmol, 2.5 equiv.), Pd 2 (dba) 3  (0.15 equiv.), BINAP (0.2 equiv.) in Toluene (10.0 mL) was heated under a nitrogen atmosphere at 110° C. for 16 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate and filtered through a pad of Celite. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na 2 SO 4 , filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material was purified on ISCO silica gel column chromatography using hexane/ethyl acetate as eluents to give the desired methyl ester 106z which was used as such in the next step. 
     Step 3 
     The above residue 106z was dissolved in methanol (5 mL) and treated with a 1N-NaOH solution (1.0 mL, 2.0 equiv.) and heated at 70° C. for 16 to 48 h. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was neutralized with a 1N HCl aqueous solution and concentrated under the reduced pressure. The residue was purified on Semi-prep HPLC using 40-95% acetonitrile (0.1% TFA) in 30 min method. The fractions were collected monitoring UV absorbance at 215 nm and lyophilized to give the desired Compounds I-106 to I-112.

     Step 1 
     To a 500 mL round-bottom flask was added 2-chloro-6-methylbenzaldehyde 113a (12 g, 77.62 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), ethanol (120 mL), water (60 mL), NH 2 OH hydrogen chloride salt (16.18 g), and sodium hydroxide (9.31 g, 232.75 mmol, 3.00 equiv.). The resulting mixture was stirred at 80° C. overnight. The mixture was concentrated under vacuum, the residue was diluted with 200 mL of H 2 O and extracted with dichloromethane (150 mL×3). The organic layers were combined and concentrated under vacuum. The crude product was recrystallized from PE to provide N-[(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)methylidene]hydroxylamine 113b (12 g, 91%) as a white solid. 
     Step 2

The resulting mixture was stirred at 10-25° C. for 2h. 500 mL of H 2 O was added. The aqueous mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (150 mL×3); the combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, concentrated under vacuum to afford 2-chloro-N-hydroxy-6-methylbenzene-1-carbonimidoyl chloride 113c (16g, Q) as a light brown crude oil. 
     Step 3 
     To a 500 mL round-bottom flask was added tetrahydrofuran (300 mL) and potassium tert-butoxide (9 g, 80.21 mmol, 1.0 equiv.). Ethyl 3-cyclopropyl-3-oxopropanoate 1d (12.5 g, 80.04 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) was added dropwise at 0-5° C. with stirring. The resulting mixture was stirred at 15-25° C. for 0.5 h, and a solution of (Z)-2-chloro-N-hydroxy-6-methylbenzene-1-carbonimidoyl chloride 113c (16.34 g, 80.08 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in tetrahydrofuran (25 mL) was added dropwise. Reaction was continued at 10-25° C. overnight, then quenched by the addition of 200 mL of water/ice. The aqueous mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (150 mL×3). The organic layers were combined, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum to give ethyl 3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate 113d (12 g, 49%) as a light yellow oil (crude). 
     Step 4 
     To a 250 mL round-bottom flask was added ethyl 3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate 113d (4.8 g, 15.70 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) and tetrahydrofuran (150 mL). Solid LiAlH 4  (1.2 g, 31.62 mmol, 2.01 equiv.) was added in several batches at 0-5° C. The resulting mixture was stirred at 10-25° C. for 1 h. The reaction was quenched by the addition of sodium sulfate.10H 2 O (3.6 g). The solids were filtered out, the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give [3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methanol 113e (4.1 g, 99%) as an off-white solid (crude). 
     Step 5 
     To a 250 mL round-bottom flask was added benzotriazole (2.4 g) and dichloromethane (100 mL). A solution of SO 2 Cl 2  (5.5 g) was added dropwise with stirring at 0-5° C. The resulting mixture was stirred at 10-25° C. for 0.5 h. A solution of [3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methanol 113e (5.4 g, 20.48 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added dropwise at 15-25° C. with stirring. Reaction was continued at 10-25° C. for 30 min. 200 mL of water/ice was added, the pH value of the solution was adjusted to 7 with sodium carbonate. The resulting mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (100 mL×3), and the combined organic extracts were dried and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (0:1 to 1:20). Removal of solvents gave 3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-4-(chloromethyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazole 113f (4.2 g, 73%) as a light brown oil. 
     Step 6 
     To a 250-mL round-bottom flask was added 3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-4-(chloromethyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazole 113f (2.56 g, 9.07 mmol, 1.0 equiv), N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL), benzyl (1S,4S,5R)-5-hydroxy-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylate C-1 (2.3 g, 9.30 mmol, 1.03 equiv.), and sodium hydride (725 mg, 30.21 mmol, 3.33 equiv.). The resulting mixture was stirred at 10-25° C. overnight. 200 mL of water/ice was added, the aqueous mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL×3) and the combined organic extracts were concentrated under vacuum to a residue, which was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (0:1 to 1:4). Removal of solvents provided benzyl (1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl] methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylate 113g (2.6g, 58%) as a light brown oil. 
     Step 7 
     To a 100 mL round-bottom flask was added benzyl (1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylate 113g (450 mg, 0.91 mmol, 1.0 equiv.), dichloromethane (5 mL), and iodotrimethylsilane (365.28 mg, 1.83 mmol, 2.0 equiv.). The reaction mixture was stirred at 10-25° C. for 2h, then quenched by the addition of 2 mL of a 2M HCl in ether solution. The mixture was diluted with 50 mL of DCM and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with a gradient mixture of ethyl acetate in petroleum ether (from 1:10 to 1:0). Removal of solvents afforded (1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane 113h (300 mg, 90%) as a light brown oil. 
     Step 8 
     To a 100 mL round-bottom flask purged and maintained under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen was added (1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabi cyclo[2.2.1]heptane 113h (300 mg, 0.84 mmol, 1.0 equiv.), tert-butyl 4-bromo-3-fluorobenzoate (345 mg, 1.25 mmol, 1.5 equiv.), Tol (50 mL), Cs 2 CO 3  (817.5 mg, 2.51 mmol, 3.0 equiv.), BIANP (26.3 mg), and Pd 2 (dba) 3  (38.25 mg, 0.042 mmol, 0.05 equiv.). The resulting mixture was stirred at 110° C. overnight. Solids were filtered out, the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to a residue, which was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with a gradient mixture of ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:10, 1:5, 3:1). Removal of solvents afforded tert-butyl 4-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-3-fluorobenzoate 113i (210, 45%) as a light brown oil. 
     Step 9 
     To a 100 mL round-bottom flask was added tert-butyl 4-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-3-fluorobenzoate 113i (210 mg, 0.38 mmol, 1.0 equiv.), dichloromethane (3 mL), and trifluoroacetic acid (3 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 10-25° C. for 3h, then diluted with 100 mL of H 2 O. The pH value of the solution was adjusted to 7 using sodium bicarbonate.

     Step 1 
     To a 25 mL round bottom flask purged with and maintained under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen was added (1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-(1-fluorocyclopropyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane 24d (140 mg, 0.35 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), MeCN (1.5 mL), methyl 6-bromopyridine-3-carboxylate (70 mg, 0.32 mmol, 1.20 equiv.), and TEA (70 mg, 0.69 mmol, 2.00 equiv.). The resulting mixture was heated at 80° C. overnight. Upon cooling to room temperature, the mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:3) to give methyl 6-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-(1-fluorocyclopropyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]pyridine-3-carboxylate 208a (100 mg, 53%) as a light yellow solid. 
     Step 2 
     To a 25 mL round-bottom flask was added methyl 6-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-(1-fluorocyclopropyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]pyridine-3-carboxylate 208a (190 mg, 0.36 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), methanol (3 mL), and a solution of LiOH (152 mg, 6.35 mmol, 10.00 equiv.) in water (0.3 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 2h, then quenched by the addition of 5 mL of H 2 O. The pH value of the solution was adjusted to 5 using a 1M hydrogen chloride aqueous solution. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL×2). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (50 mL×2), dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum to afford 6-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-(1-fluorocyclopropyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid 208b (110 mg, 59%) as a light yellow solid. 
     Step 3

     To a 1000 mL round-bottom flask was added a solution of 1,10-dibromodecane 223a (20 g, 66.65 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in tetrahydrofuran (300 mL). Potassium ethanethioate (4.2 g, 36.78 mmol, 0.55 equiv.) was added in several batches. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was diluted with 500 mL of EA, washed with brine (500 mL×2), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (0-20%) to give 1-[(10-bromodecyl)sulfanyl]ethan-1-one 227a (18g, 91%) as a yellow oil. 
     Step 2 
     To a 250 mL round-bottom flask was added MeCN (8 mL) and a 2M hydrogen chloride aqueous solution (7 mL, 0.53 equiv, 2M). NCS (15.2 g, 113.83 mmol, 4.30 equiv.) was added in several batches at 10° C. A solution of 1-[(10-bromodecyl)sulfanyl]ethan-1-one 227a (7.8 g, 26.42 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in CH 3 CN (8 mL) was added dropwise with stirring at 10° C. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, diluted with EA (200 mL), and washed with a saturated sodium carbonate aqueous solution (200 mL×2). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (0-20%) to give 10-bromodecane-1-sulfonyl chloride 227b (6 g, 71%) as colorless oil. 
     Step 3 
     To a 250 mL round bottom flask was added 10-bromodecane-1-sulfonyl chloride 227b (3 g, 9.38 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) and a saturated solution of NH 3  in THE (50 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with dichloromethane/ethyl acetate (100%-75%) to give 10-bromodecane-1-sulfonamide 227c (1.5 gm 53%) as a white solid. 
     Step 4 
     To a 25 mL round bottom flask was added 4-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-3-fluorobenzoic acid I-53 (310 mg, 0.60 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), a solution of 10-bromodecane-1-sulfonamide 227c (450 mg, 1.50 mmol, 2.50 equiv.) in dichloromethane (5 mL), EDCI (173 mg, 0.90 mmol, 1.50 equiv.), and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (220 mg, 1.80 mmol, 3.00 equiv.). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was diluted with 30 mL of DCM, washed with brine (30 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with dichloromethane/methanol (15:1) to afford N-[(10-bromodecane)sulfonyl]-4-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-3-fluorobenzamide 227d (260 mg, 54%) as a yellow solid. 
     Step 5 
     To a 25 mL round-bottom flask was added a solution of N-[(10-chlorodecane)sulfonyl]-4-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-3-fluorobenzamide 227d (260 mg, 0.34 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in N,N-dimethylformamide (2 mL), DIEA (84 mg, 0.65 mmol, 3.00 equiv), and azetidine (56 mg, 0.98 mmol, 2.00 equiv.). The resulting mixture was stirred at 50° C. overnight. Solids were filtered out and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum. The crude product was purified by Prep-HPLC using the following conditions: Column, XBridge Shield RP18 OBD Column, 5 um, 19*150 mm; mobile phase, Water (0.05% NH 3 H 2 O) and ACN (45.0% ACN up to 65.0% in 10 min); Detector, uv 220 nm. After purification N-[[10-(azetidin-1-yl)decane]sulfonyl]-4-[(1S,4S,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-3-fluorobenzamide I-227 (41.5 mg, 16%) was obtained as a white solid.  1 HNMR (400 MHz, CD 3 OD): δ 7.71-7.43 (m, 5H), 6.56 (t, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 4.31 (s, 2H), 4.18 (s, 1H), 4.10 (t, J=8.2 Hz, 4H), 3.59-3.51 (m, 1H), 3.47 (d, J=6.6 Hz, 1H), 3.18-3.09 (m, 2H), 2.70-2.63 (m, 1H), 2.52-2.41 (m, 3H), 2.27 (p, J=6.8 Hz, 1H), 1.95-1.87 (m, 1H), 1.79 (q, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 1.51 (dd, J=36.9, 10.5 Hz, 6H), 1.32 (d, J=14.0 Hz, 8H), 1.22-1.14 (m, 4H); MS (ES, m/z): [M+1]=775.3.

     Example 230: 2-[(1S,4R,5R)-5-{[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy}-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-4-ethyl-1,3-benzothiazole-6-carboxylic acid (I-294) 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Step 1 
     To a 100 mL round-bottom flask purged with and maintained under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen was added methyl 2-bromo-4-ethyl-1,3-benzothiazole-6-carboxylate (128 mg, 0.43 mmol, 1.75 equiv.), a solution of (1S,4R,5R)-5-[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy-2-azabicyclo [2.2.1]heptan-3-one 244g (100 mg, 0.25 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in p-xylene (30 mL), CuCl (25 mg, 0.26 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), potassium carbonate (59 mg, 0.43 mmol, 1.66 equiv.), and TDA-1 (Tris(dioxa-3,6-heptyl)amine, 24 mg, 0.07 mmol, 0.29 equiv.). The resulting mixture was heated at 145° C. overnight. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with 40 mL of EA, washed with brine (30 mL×2), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:4) to afford methyl 2-[(1S,4R,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-4-ethyl-1,3-benzothiazole-6-carboxylate 294a (70 mg, 45%) as a yellow oil. 
     Step 2 
     To a 50 mL round-bottom flask purged with and maintained under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen was added methyl 2-[(1S,4R,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-4-ethyl-1,3-benzothiazole-6-carboxylate 294a (100 mg, 0.16 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), pyridine (4 mL), and LiI (220 mg, 1.64 mmol, 10.00 equiv.). The resulting mixture was heated overnight at 125° C. The mixture was diluted with 40 mL of EA after cooling to room temperature, and the pH value of the solution was adjusted to 2 using a 2M hydrogen chloride aqueous solution. The mixture was washed with brine (30 mL×2), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The crude product was purified by Prep-HPLC using the following conditions: Column, XBridge Prep OBD C18 Column, 19*250 mm, 5 um; mobile phase, Water (0.05% TFA) and ACN (47.0% ACN up to 65.0% in 8 min); Detector, uv 220 nm. After purification 2-[(1S,4R,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo [2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-4-ethyl-1,3-benzothiazole-6-carboxylic acid I-294 (53.8 mg, 55%) was obtained as a yellow solid.  1 H-NMR (400 MHz, CD 3 OD) δ: 8.38 (d, J=1.7 Hz, 1H), 7.93 (d, J=1.7 Hz, 1H), 7.64-7.45 (m, 3H), 5.21 (s, 1H), 4.42 (s, 2H), 3.91 (d, J=6.8 Hz, 1H), 3.17-2.98 (m, 3H), 2.36-2.23 (m, 1H), 2.24-2.06 (m, 2H), 1.93 (d, J=10.2 Hz, 1H), 1.68 (d, J=13.6 Hz, 1H), 1.36 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 3H), 1.26-1.16 (m, 4H). MS (ES, m/z): [M+1]=598.20.

     Step 1 
     To a 8 mL sealed tube purged with and maintained under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen was added (1S,4R,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1] heptan-3-one 244g (100 mg, 0.25 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), a solution of methyl 3-(4-bromophenyl)propanoate (93 mg, 0.38 mmol, 1.50 equiv.) in dioxane (2 mL), Xant-Phos (22 mg, 0.04 mmol, 0.15 equiv.), Pd 2 (dba) 3  (12 mg, 0.01 mmol, 0.05 equiv.), and Cs 2 CO 3  (125 mg, 0.38 mmol, 1.50 equiv.). The resulting mixture was heated at 105° C. overnight. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with 20 mL of EA, washed with brine (20 mL×2), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:3) to give methyl 3-[4-[(1S,4R,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]phenyl]propanoate 303a (100 mg, 71%) as a light yellow oil. 
     Step 2 
     To a 250 mL round-bottom flask was added a solution of methyl 3-[4-[(1S,4R,5R)-5-[[5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-oxazol-4-yl]methoxy]-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]phenyl]propanoate 303a (100 mg, 0.18 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in ethanol (5 mL) and H 2 O (1 mL), and LiOH (43 mg, 1.80 mmol, 10.00 equiv.). The resulting mixture was stirred at 30° C. for 1 h. The pH value of the solution was adjusted to 2 usign a 1M hydrogen chloride aqueous solution. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (30 mL×2); the combined organic extracts were washed with brine (30 mL×2), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The crude product was purified by Prep-HPLC using the following conditions: Column, XBridge Shield RP18 OBD Column, 5 um, 19*150 mm; mobile phase, Water (0.05% TFA) and ACN (44.0% ACN up to 62.0% in 8 min); Detector, UV 254 nm.

     Step 1 
     (1R,2R)-2-hydroxycyclopentane-1-sulfonyl chloride 344a (1.0g, 5.41 mmol) was dissolved in a 0.5 M solution of ammonia in THE (100 mL, 0.5M). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. TLC (iodine stain) showed the starting material disappeared. The solids were filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated to give (1R,2R)-2-hydroxycyclopentane-1-sulfonamide 344b (0.72 g, crude) as a brown oil. The crude product was used without further purification. 
     Step 2 
     To a solution of 4-((1S,4R,5R)-5-((5-cyclopropyl-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)isoxazol-4-yl)methoxy)-3-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)benzoic acid I-244 (100 mg, 194 μmol) and (1R,2R)-2-hydroxycyclopentane-1-sulfonamide 344b (48.0 mg, 291 μmol) in DCM (5 mL) was added EDCI (74.3 mg, 388 μmol), DMAP (24 mg, 196 μmol) and Et 3 N (80.9 μL, 582 μmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. The mixture was diluted with DCM, washed with water, dried and concentrated.

     Example 277: FXR Ligand Binding Assay 
     The affinity of FXR ligands for the ligand binding domain of FXR was determined using a commercially available human FXR ligand binding assay (LanthaScreen, Thermofisher Cat #PV4833). The purified ligand binding domain of human FXR tagged with GST (glutathiones-S-transferase) is incubated with a terbium labelled anti-GLT antibody and a fluorescein-labelled SRC2-2 peptide (LKEKHKILHRLLQDSSSPV (SEQ ID NO.: 1)). Binding of FXR ligands to the FXR ligand binding domain promotes binding of the fluorescein-labelled SRC2-2 peptide. This causes a FRET signal between the terbium-labelled anti-GST antibody and the fluorescein-labelled SRC peptide which are both bound to the FXR ligand binding domain. 
     Test compounds are dissolved in DMSO and a 3-fold serial dilution series is generated, then further diluted into assay buffer. The compounds are mixed with 5 nM GST-tagged FXR ligand binding domain, 5 nM Tb-labelled anti-GST antibody and 500 nM fluorescein-labelled SRC2-2 peptide in a pH7.4 buffer. The reaction is incubated at room temperature for 1 hour, then the FRET signal is measured as the ratio of the 520 nm/495 nm emission following excitation at 340 nm. The change in FRET signal is plotted against the test article concentration and fit to a 3-parameter logistical equation. The concentration required to produce 50% activation is expressed as pEC 50  (−log EC 50 ), and the extent of activation is expressed relative to GW4064 as % activation. The data for the compounds of the invention in the ligand binding assay are shown in Table 23.

     Example 278: Cell-Based Assay of FXR Activation 
     FXR activation was measured using a cell line and procedure obtained from Life Technologies (Cat #K1691). FXR-UAS-bla HEK 293T cells contain a human Farnesoid X receptor ligand-binding domain/Gal4 DNA binding domain chimera stably integrated into the CellSensor® UAS-bla HEK 293T cell line. The CellSensor® UAS-bla HEK 293T contains a beta-lactamase reporter gene under control of a UAS response element stably integrated into HEK 293T cells. Activation of FXR by bound ligands results in transcriptional activation of the beta-lactamase reporter gene, which is detected via assay of beta-lactamase activity. 
     Cells are harvested and diluted into assay medium containing phenol red-free DMEM supplemented with 2% Charcoal-stripped FBS, pyruvate, non-essential amino acids. Cells are then transferred to a 384 well assay plate. Test compounds are dissolved in DMSO and a 3-fold serial dilution series is generated, then further diluted into assay medium. Compounds in assay medium are added to cells in the 384 well plate and allowed to incubate 16 h at 37 C in the presence of 5% CO 2 . 
     Following incubation, FXR activity is detected via measurement of beta-lactamase that is produced under its transcriptional control. A FRET-based beta-lactamase (CCF4) is loaded into cells as its acetomethoxy ester. Intracellular esterases liberate free CCF4, a cephalosporin core linking 7-hydroxycoumarin to fluorescein. In the presence of beta-lactamase activity produced in the presence of FXR agonists, cleavage of CCF4 spatially separates the two dyes and disrupts FRET, so that exciting the coumarin at 409 nm now produces a blue fluorescence signal at 447 nm. The change in FRET signal is plotted against the test compound concentration and fit to a 3-parameter logistical equation. The concentration required to produce 50% activation is expressed as pEC 50  (−log EC 50 ), and the extent of activation is expressed relative to GW4064 as % activation. The data for the compounds of the invention in the cell-based assay are shown in Table 24.

     Example 279: Restoration of Epithelial Barrier Integrity in Colitis 
     Colonic histopathology was assessed in mice administered dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to assess the ability of selected example compounds to restore epithelial barrier integrity in a model of colitis presenting with epithelial erosions. Approximately seven-week old, female, C57Bl/6 mice were purchased from Envigo (Livermore, Calif.), were housed 6 per cage and acclimated for at least 2 weeks before study initiation. Animals were fed standard laboratory rodent chow Harlan Teklad Global 2018 (Maddison, Wis.). Mice had ad libitum access to food and water for the duration of the study and were maintained in a temperature and humidity controlled room on a standard light/dark cycle of 6 AM to 6 PM. DSS was prepared at 1.5% (MW 35-50 kDa, Lot #M7191, MP Biomedical) in filtered drinking water and provided to the mice from Day 0 to Day 7 (n=12/group). The DSS water was replaced once during the study on Day 3 or 4 with fresh DSS water. One cohort of mice (n=6) was provided drinking water without DSS and severed as the non-diseased control group. Vehicle (1% methylcellulose in water, 10 mL/kg) or varying doses of test compound were administered once daily by oral gavage beginning on Day −3 through Day 8. FXR agonist compounds of the invention, FXR1 and FXR2, were tested at doses of 0.3 and 1 mg/kg and compared to known FXR agonist obeticholic acid (OCA) administered at 30 mg/kg. Body weight and food and water intake were measured daily from the initiation of DSS administration. Disease activity index (DAI) scoring was performed on Day 9 prior to necropsy. Stool consistency, blood in stool, incidence of rectal prolapse, and body condition was assessed according to the scoring system in Table 25 and summed to a total DAI score:

     Following DAI scoring on Day 9 and under isoflurane anesthesia mice were exsanguinated via cardiac puncture and euthanized by thoracotomy, followed by cervical dislocation. The entire colon (from the cecum to the anus) was removed, and the length recorded. The luminal contents were removed by flushing with ice-cold PBS using a blunt needle attached to a syringe and the colon was blotted dry and weighed. For each treatment group, half of the distal colon samples were prepared for cytokine analysis and half were prepared for histological evaluation. For cytokine measurement, the distal ⅓ of the colon was excised and weighed, placed into 5 mL Eppendorf tubes, frozen on dry ice and stored at −80° C. until analysis. Inflammatory cytokines were measured in colon tissue using a V-Plex custom kit (Proinflammatory Panel 1 (mouse), Mesoscale Technology). For histology, the colon was rolled by grasping the distal end and rotating to generate a spiral with a third dimension. The colon was then placed in a tissue cassette, and into ajar of 10% buffered formalin phosphate at room temperature for at least 24 hours to ensure tissue fixation, at which point the formalin was replaced with 70% ethanol. The tissue was processed in paraffin, sectioned in cross-section (5 μm) and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&amp;E) stain. A blinded, board-certified Veterinary pathologist, graded the severity of colitis according to the criteria described in Table 26. Three levels of the distal colon were assigned a colitis score and the average colitis score for each animal was derived by summing the colitis scores for the three levels of colon evaluated and dividing the sum by three. The average colitis score for each treatment group was derived by summing the colitis scores for all levels of colon evaluated in the group and dividing the sum by the total number of levels of colon evaluated for that group. The presence or absence of mucosal defects (erosions or ulcerations) was also recorded for each level of colon. Statistical analysis was performed on continuous variables by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with post-hoc multiple comparison with Dunnetts correction to compare all groups to DSS colitis mice treated with vehicle control. Statistical analysis was performed on ordinal variables using a Fisher&#39;s Exact Test. A p&lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant.

     DSS administration significantly decreased body weight ( FIG.  1   ) and significantly increased DAI score ( FIG.  2   ) compared to no DSS control mice. Only FXR1 significantly attenuated the DSS-induced reduction in body weight at 1 mg/kg ( FIG.  1   ) and significantly attenuated the DSS-induced increase in DAI score at both 0.3 and 1 mg/kg ( FIG.  2   ). Known FXR agonist OCA did not significantly affect body weight nor DAI score. DSS administration significantly increased the content of inflammatory cytokines IL-6 ( FIG.  3   a   ), IL-1β ( FIG.  3   b   ), TNFα ( FIG.  3   c   ), IFNγ ( FIG.  3   d   ) and KC/Gro ( FIG.  3   e   ) in the colon compared to no DSS control mice. FXR1 and FXR2 significantly reduced the levels of all of these pro-inflammatory cytokines in the colon of DSS mice at 1 mg/kg, with FXR1 also significantly reducing the levels of all of these cytokines at 0.3 mg/kg. Whereas known FXR agonist OCA only significantly reduced the levels of IL-1β, TNFα and KC/Gro at 30 mg/kg. ( FIG.  3   ). Histology colitis score was significantly increased by DSS administration compared to no DSS control mice ( FIG.  4   ). Only FXR1 at 1 mg/kg significantly reduced histology colitis score in DSS mice ( FIG.  4   ). Known FXR agonist OCA did not significantly affect histology colitis score ( FIG.  4   ). DSS administration significantly increased the presence of epithelial erosions (mucosal defects) observed histologically ( FIG.  5   ). Only FXR1 at 1 mg/kg significantly prevented the development of epithelial erosions in DSS mice ( FIG.  5   ). Known FXR agonist OCA did not reduce the number of epithelial erosions observed in DSS mice. FXR1 was unique in its effect to attenuate body weight loss, reduce DAI severity and provide histological protection to the colon including the prevention of DSS-induced epithelial erosions 
     Example 280: Restoration of Colonic Permeability in High Fat, High Cholesterol and High Carbohydrate Fed Mice 
     Urinary excretion of an oral bolus of sucralose was measured as a marker of colonic permeability in mice acclimated to a high fat, high cholesterol, high carbohydrate (HFCC) diet to assess the ability of selected example compounds to restore colonic permeability in vivo. Urinary excretion of an oral bolus of sucralose has been established as a method to assess colonic permeability in vivo and mouse models of obesity created by the administration of high fat diets have been shown to demonstrate increased colonic permeability (Bischoff et al. BMC Gastroenterology 2014, 14:189). Approximately five-week old, male, C57Bl/6 mice purchased from Taconic (Albany, N.Y.), were housed 5 per cage and acclimated for at least 48 hours before study initiation. Animals were then acclimated to a high fat, high cholesterol, high carbohydrate diet (HFCC) containing 20% protein, 43% carbohydrate, and 23% fat (6.6% trans-fat) (TD.130885, TEKLAD Diets) and were provided drinking water containing 55:45 fructose:dextrose, 42 g/L) for 18-weeks. Mice had ad libitum access to food and water for the duration of the study and were maintained in a temperature and humidity controlled room on a standard light/dark cycle of 6 AM to 6 PM. C 57 Bl/6 male mice (n=5) fed standard rodent diet (NC) (2018, TEKLAD Diets), were used as normal control mice. Vehicle (2.5% HPCD/0.1% Tween 80+HCl, 10 mL/kg) or varying doses of test compound were administered once daily by oral gavage following the 18-week acclimation period for 3-weeks (n=10/group). FXR1 was tested at doses of 0.3 and 1 mg/kg. Following 3-weeks of treatment, each mouse was administered a 200 μL oral bolus containing 0.45 mg of sucralose in distilled water. Immediately following the sucralose bolus, mice were given a subcutaneous injection of 2 mL of sterile saline to increase urine volume. Mice were then placed individually in metabolic cages with free access to food and water. Urine was collected for 5-hours following the oral sucralose bolus and urine volume was measured and recorded. Urinary sucralose concentration was then quantified by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). Urinary sucralose excretion (μg) was calculated as urine sucralose concentration (μg/mL) multiplied by 5-hour urine volume (mL). Statistical analysis was performed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with post-hoc multiple comparison with Dunnetts correction to compare all groups to HFCC mice treated with vehicle control. A p&lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant. Colonic permeability was increased in HFCC fed mice, compared to NC control mice as indicated by a significant increase in urinary sucralose excretion ( FIG.  6   ). FXR1 dose-dependently normalized urinary sucralose excretion in HFCC fed mice, indicating restoration of colonic permeability ( FIG.  6   ).
