| Name | Thalidomide |
| Description | Thalidomide (Thalomid) is a synthetic derivative of glutamic acid (alpha-phthalimido-glutarimide) with teratogenic, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties. |
| In vitro | Thalidomide selectively inhibits the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in human monocytes stimulated by lipopolysaccharides and other agonists. Its suppression of TNF-α is mediated through the enhancement of mRNA degradation. Moreover, thalidomide exerts a direct effect on MM cell lines by inducing apoptosis and G1 phase growth arrest, as well as on patient MM cells resistant to melphalan, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexamethasone. |
| In vivo | Administering 200mg/kg of Thalidomide resulted in the inhibition of vascularization in the corneal region within rabbits, with the inhibition rate ranging from 30% to 51% across three experiments. |
| Storage | Powder: -20°C for 3 years | In solvent: -80°C for 1 year | Shipping with blue ice/Shipping at ambient temperature. |
| Solubility Information | 10% DMSO+40% PEG300+5% Tween 80+45% Saline : 1 mg/mL (3.87 mM), Sonication is recommended. DMSO : 125 mg/mL (484.06 mM), Sonication is recommended.
