Abstract

2-Alkylsulfinyl-1, 3, 4-oxadiazoles have been identified as novel inhibitors of cell adhesion molecule expression on endothelial cells. These compounds have been shown to inhibit the up-regulation of ELAM-1 and VCAM-1 on activated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as measured by ELISA.
