Biological Activity

Thalidomide is a selective inhibitor of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) synthesis. Anti-inflammatory; promotes T-cell activation. Predicted to reduce cytokine release in SARS-CoV-2 infection. Also binds cereblon, inhibiting ubiquitin ligase activity. Teratogenic and sedative-hypnotic. Promotes degradation of transcription factor SALL4.
