thalidomide and Cardiac Remodeling, Ventricular

thalidomide has been researched along with Cardiac Remodeling, Ventricular 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Thalidomide: A piperidinyl isoindole originally introduced as a non-barbiturate hypnotic, but withdrawn from the market due to teratogenic effects.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
"Although thalidomide had no effect on cardiac function, our results suggest that intervention with thalidomide may have beneficial effects in post-MI HF by attenuating collagen accumulation and development of myocardial fibrosis."7.73Thalidomide attenuates the development of fibrosis during post-infarction myocardial remodelling in rats. ( Attramadal, H; Aukrust, P; Bjørnerheim, R; Frøland, SS; Oie, E; Ueland, T; Vinge, LE; Wang, JE; Yndestad, A, 2006)
