title: Inhibition of adhesion molecule expression by N-alkylthiopyridine-benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamides.
abstract: The surface levels of ICAM-1 and E-selectin on activated endothelial cells can be reduced by 3-alkoxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamides. This property is shared by several N-alkylthiopyridine substituted imides. Combining structural elements of these two diverse series lead to a new class of small molecule inhibitors of adhesion molecule expression.
