Descripción (Description)

Thalidomide is a non-addictive and non-barbiturate sedative that inhibits cereblon with anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties [1]. Thalidomide binds to GC-rich promoter sites by intercalation and thereby decreases the transcription of IGF-1 and FGF-2 and inhibits angiogenesis to exert the teratogenic effects [2]. Thalidomide has been widely used to alleviate neural inflammation and inhibit the excessive vascularization, growth, and metastasis of tumors[3].

In vitro, Thalidomide treatment for 72 hours significantly inhibited the proliferation of MG-63 cells and U2OS cells, with IC50 values of 94.76µg/ml and 156.61µg/ml, respectively[4]. Thalidomide treatment (150µg/ml) for 12 hours significantly inhibited the formation of tubular structures in ECV 304 cells and induced cytoskeleton reorganization[5]. Thalidomide pretreatment (1mM) for 30 minutes inhibited the NFκB transcriptional activation induced by IL-1β in Caco-2 cells as well as the production of IL-8, and inhibited the nuclear translocation of NFκB and the degradation of IκB[6].

In vivo, Thalidomide treatment via oral administration at a dose of 200mg/kg/day for 30 days significantly inhibited the tumor growth and metastasis of A549 xenograft in mice [7].

Protocolo (Protocol)

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

MG-63 cells

Preparation Method

MG-63 cells were grown in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100μg/ml streptomycin, and 100U/ml penicillin at 37°C in 5% CO2/atmosphere. MG-63 cells (1×104) were seeded into each well of a 96-well plate overnight before Thalidomide treatment. Thalidomide was added to the cells at various concentrations (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400µg/ml), and incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 72h. The cell viability was analyzed.

Reaction Conditions

0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400µg/ml; 72h

Applications

Thalidomide treatment significantly decreased the cell viability of MG-63 cells in a dose-dependent manner.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

BALB/c nude mice

Preparation Method

Female BALB/c nude mice were housed in a specialized animal care facility, in a room with constant temperature (25°C), humidity control, and a 12/12h light/dark cycle with free access to food and water. A549 cells were resuspended in PBS. Subsequently, 1×107 cells in 0.1ml of PBS were injected into the lateral tail vein of 6-week-old nude mice. Two weeks after administration, 100 to 200mm3 tumors were apparent in all mice. Mice were divided into two groups (n=6) and orally received either control vehicle (soy oil) or Thalidomide (200mg/kg/day) suspended in soy oil. Mice were treated every day for 30 days with thalidomide or control vehicle, and tumor growth was measured twice per week with calipers.

Dosage form

200mg/kg/day for 30 days; p.o.

Applications

Thalidomide treatment significantly reduced tumor growth in mice with A549 xenograft.
