3,6-dithiothalidomide and thalidomide inhibited lipopolysaccharide-stimulated tumor necrosis factor-α gene and protein expression in C57 mice. Mice were treated peripherally (intraperitoneal injection) with a single equivalent dose (100 mg/kg) of 3,6′-DT or Thal 30 min prior to a peripheral 5 mg/kg dose of LPS (intraperitoneal injection). Cortical tissue was harvested 4 hours after LPS injection. n = 6 per group. One-way analysis of variance: P < 0.001; *P < 0.001 versus all other groups. LPS: lipopolysaccharide; Thal: thalidomide; TNFα: tumor necrosis factor-α; 3,6′-DT: 3,6′-dithiothalidomide.
