Technical Data

Formula

C13H10N2O4
Molecular Weight 258.23 CAS No. 50-35-1
Solubility (25°C)* In vitro DMSO 51 mg/mL (197.49 mM)
Water Insoluble
Ethanol Insoluble
In vivo (Add solvents to the product individually and in order)
Clear solution
5%DMSO 30%PEG300 1%Tween80 64%ddH2O (suspension)
5.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 100 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 300 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 10 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 640 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Thalidomide was introduced as a sedative drug, immunomodulatory agent and also is investigated for treating symptoms of many cancers. Thalidomide inhibits cereblon (CRBN), a part of the cullin-4 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex CUL4-RBX1-DDB1.
Targets
E3 Ligase [6]
(Cell-free assay)		 TNF-alpha [2]
(Cell-free assay)
In vitro

Thalidomide must be metabolized by the liver to form an epoxide that may be the active teratogenic metabolite. [1] Thalidomide selectively inhibits the production of human monocyte tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) when human monocytes are triggered with lipopolysaccharide and other agonists in culture. [2] Thalidomide exerts its inhibitory action on tumor necrosis factor alpha by enhancing mRNA degradation. [3] Thalidomide acts directly, by inducing apoptosis or G1 growth arrest, in MM cell lines and in patient MM cells that are resistant to melphalan, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone (Dex). Thalidomide enhances the anti-MM activity of Dex and, conversely, are inhibited by interleukin 6. [4] Thalidomide is a potent costimulator of primary human T cells in vitro, synergizing with stimulation via the T cell receptor complex to increase interleukin 2-mediated T cell proliferation and interferon gamma production. Thalidomide also increases the primary CD8+ cytotoxic T cell response induced by allogeneic dendritic cells in the absence of CD4+ T cells. [5]
In vivo

Thalidomide (200 mg/kg) results in an inhibition of the area of vascularized cornea of rabbits that ranged from 30% to 51% in three experiments with a median inhibition of 36%. [1]
