Immunomodulation by thalidomide and thalidomide analogues [PDF]
Tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα), a key cytokine involved in the host immune response, also contributes to the pathogenesis of both infectious and autoimmune diseases. To ameliorate the pathology resulting from TNFα in these clinical settings, strategies for the inhibition of this cytokine have been developed.

Myelodysplastic Syndrome With Complex Chromosomal Karyotype Abnormalities Complicated by Multiple Intestinal Perforations: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Background Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) are clonal hematopoietic disorders often associated with cytogenetic abnormalities, among which trisomy 8 is one of the most common abnormalities. Trisomy 8 is linked to autoimmune manifestations, including Behçet‐like disease, especially with gastrointestinal involvement.

Antiangiogenic Activity and in Silico Cereblon Binding Analysis of Novel Thalidomide Analogs
Due to its antiangiogenic and anti-immunomodulatory activity, thalidomide continues to be of clinical interest despite its teratogenic actions, and efforts to synthesize safer, clinically active thalidomide analogs are continually underway. In this study,
