Molecular Mechanisms and Determinants of Species Sensitivity in Thalidomide Teratogenesis
The expanding therapeutic use of thalidomide (TD) remains limited by its species-specific teratogenicity in humans and rabbits, but not rodents. The R and S isomers of TD may be selectively responsible for its respective therapeutic and teratogenic effects, but rapid in vivo racemization makes t...
