thalidomide and Cancer of Colon

thalidomide has been researched along with Cancer of Colon in 18 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Thalidomide: A piperidinyl isoindole originally introduced as a non-barbiturate hypnotic, but withdrawn from the market due to teratogenic effects.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
" Screening for cancer revealed coexistence of two neoplasms: colon sigmoid cancer (operated on 6 weeks after pulmonary embolism onset), and multiple myeloma (treated successfully with thalidomide and dexamethasone)."3.75[Pulmonary embolism as a first manifestation of synchronous occurrence of two neoplasms]. ( Elikowski, W; Krokowicz, P; Lewandowska, M; Małek, M; Piotrowska-Stelmaszyk, G; Zawilska, K, 2009)
"Thalidomide is an anti-inflammatory agent that potentiates the anti-tumour activity of DMXAA but decreases induction of TNF in plasma."1.35Consequences of increased vascular permeability induced by treatment of mice with 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) and thalidomide. ( Baguley, BC; Ching, LM; Chung, F; Liu, J, 2008)
"Thalidomide has been shown to have both antiinflammatory and antiangiogenic effects in several diseases."1.31Thalidomide suppresses the interleukin 1beta-induced NFkappaB signaling pathway in colon cancer cells. ( Han, DS; Jin, SH; Kim, TI; Kim, WH; Shin, SK, 2002)
"05) increased the elimination half-life (t1/2) of DMXAA in plasma (413 micromol/l), liver (132 micromol/l), and spleen (77 micromol/l), and significantly (P < 0."1.31Modulation of the pharmacokinetics of the antitumour agent 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) in mice by thalidomide. ( Baguley, BC; Ching, LM; Kestell, P; Muller, G; Palmer, BD; Paxton, JW; Zhao, L, 2000)
"Thalidomide did not increase intra-tumoural TNF-alpha production induced with LPS, in sharp contrast to that obtained with DMXAA."1.30Thalidomide increases both intra-tumoural tumour necrosis factor-alpha production and anti-tumour activity in response to 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid.
