Thalidomide-O-PEG3-amine CAS:2136248-13-8 is a type of small molecule drug that is used in the treatment of certain types of cancer and inflammatory diseases. It is composed of several functional groups, including a thalidomide group, a polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacer, and an amine group.
Thalidomide is a type of immunomodulatory drug that has been shown to be effective in treating certain types of cancer, such as multiple myeloma and myelodysplastic syndromes, as well as inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn’s disease. The PEG spacer in Thalidomide-O-PEG3-amine is used to improve the solubility and stability of the drug in solution, allowing it to be more easily administered to patients. The amine group is important for the chemical reactivity of the compound and can be used to attach Thalidomide-O-PEG3-amine to other molecules, such as proteins or surfaces.
In terms of its mechanism of action, Thalidomide-O-PEG3-amine works by modulating the activity of certain immune cells in the body, particularly T cells and natural killer cells. By enhancing the activity of these cells, Thalidomide-O-PEG3-amine can help to boost the body’s immune response to cancer cells and reduce inflammation, leading to improved outcomes for patients with cancer and inflammatory diseases.
