thalidomide and Bile Duct Cancer

thalidomide has been researched along with Bile Duct Cancer in 2 studies

Thalidomide: A piperidinyl isoindole originally introduced as a non-barbiturate hypnotic, but withdrawn from the market due to teratogenic effects. It has been reintroduced and used for a number of immunological and inflammatory disorders. Thalidomide displays immunosuppressive and anti-angiogenic activity. It inhibits release of TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR-ALPHA from monocytes, and modulates other cytokine action.
thalidomide : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of R- and S-thalidomide.
2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione : A dicarboximide that is isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is substituted by a 2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl group.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Using our rat cholangiocarcinoma model, we demonstrated that thalidomide inhibited tumor growth and was associated with a decrease in expression of reduced eIF4E and VEGF expression; in addition, thalidomide preserved fast-twitch skeletal muscle fibers and was associated with decreased expression of TNFalpha and TGFbeta1."7.74Thalidomide attenuates tumor growth and preserves fast-twitch skeletal muscle fibers in cholangiocarcinoma rats. ( Liao, LM; Liu, KH; Ro, LS; Wu, YL; Yeh, TS, 2008)
