microtubule polymerization

Ixabepilone (Azaepothilone B) is an orally bioavailable microtubule inhibitor. It binds to tubulin and promotes tubulin polymerization and microtubule stabilization, thereby arresting cells in the G2-M phase of the cell cycle and inducing tumor cell apoptosis.

AK301 is a potent and selective inhibitor of tubulin polymerization and an effective sensitizer of cancer cells to apoptotic ligands (EC50 < 200 nM). Colon cancer cells arrested in mitosis with AK301 readily underwent a p53-dependent apoptosis following compound withdrawal and arrest release.

cis-trismethoxy Resveratrol ((Z)-3,5,4'-Trimethoxystilbene) inhibits tubulin polymerization (IC50 = 4 μM) and has anti-mitotic effects.

T-900607 is a novel microtubule protein active agent that disrupts microtubule polymerization through a unique mechanism of action. t-900607 is cardiotoxic.

Tubulin inhibitor 32 is an orally active novel microtubule inhibitor with antiproliferative and antitumor activity, inhibits microtubule polymerization, induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in G2 M phase.

Colchicine (Colcin) is a natural product that is an inhibitor of microtubule polymerization (IC50=3 nM) and blocks microtubule polymerization by binding to microtubule proteins. Colchicine can be used in the treatment of ventilation and rheumatic diseases.

Benproperine phosphate (Pirexyl phosphate) is a cough suppressant.

Albendazole sulfoxide (Ricobendazole) is a metabolite of Albendazole, an anthelmintic.

Nocodazole (Oncodazole) is a reversible inhibitor of microtubule polymerization and an inhibitor of Bcr-Abl. Nocodazole has antitumor activity, blocks the cell cycle and induces apoptosis.

Fosbretabulin Disodium (CA 4P), a water-soluble prodrug of Combretastatin A4 (CA4), is a microtubule-targeting agent that binds β-tubulin (Kd: 0.4 μM). Fosbretabulin Disodium(Combretastatin A4 disodium phosphate) inhibits the polymerization of tubulin (IC50: 2.4 μM), and also disrupts tumor vasculature.

Eribulin (B1939) is a nonpaclitaxel microtubule kinetic inhibitor with anticancer activity that inhibits polymerization of microtubule protein subunits by preventing lengthening and shortening of microtubules during cell division.Eribulin is used in the study of metastatic breast cancer and solid tumors.

Trimethylcolchicinic acid (N-Deacetylcolchiceine) is an orally available colchicine analog that binds to tubulin and inhibits its polymerization into microtubules, preventing cell division and having potential antitumor activity.

Tubulin inhibitor 6 (iHAP1) is an inhibitor of tubulin and a potent inhibitor of multiple cancer cell lines.

BNC105 is a tubulin polymerization inhibitor. It has potent antiproliferative and tumor vascular disrupting properties.

Ansamitocin p-3 (Maytansinol isobutyrate) is an inhibitor of microtubule with IC50 of 3.4 μM for tubulin polymerization.

CHM-1 is an inducer of apoptosis, and displays potent antitumor ability in human hepatocellular carcinoma by activation of Cdc2 kinase activity. CHM-1 inhibits tubulin polymerization in vitro and in vivo.

MPT0B014 is a potent tubulin polymerization inhibitor. MPT0B014 can induce cancer cell apoptosis.

Tubulin polymerization-IN-43 is an inhibitor of tubulin polymerisation.Tubulin polymerization-IN-43 has multiple effects, disrupting the cellular microtubule network by targeting the colchicine locus and promoting cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in leukaemia cells. Tubulin polymerisation-IN-43 has multiple effects, promoting leukaemia cell cycle arrest in G2 M phase and apoptosis by targeting Colchicine sites to disrupt the cellular microtubule network.

Tubulin polymerization-IN-47 is a tubulin polymerization inhibitor and mitotic inhibitor with antitumor activity and inhibitory effects on neuroblastoma cancer cell proliferation, with IC50s of 7 and 12 nM for Chp-134 and Kelly cell lines, respectively. Tubulin polymerization-IN-47 is a candidate compound for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, colon cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer.

Map4343 is a 3-methyl ether derivative of pregnenolone. Map4343 binds to microtubule associated protein 2 (MAP2) in vitro and stimulates tubulin polymerization, resulting in enhanced neurite extension and protection of neurons from neurotoxic agents.

Batabulin (T138067) is an antitumor compound that binds covalently and selectively to a subset of the β-tubulin isotypes, disrupting microtubule polymerization. This disruption affects cell morphology, induces cell-cycle arrest, and ultimately leads to apoptotic cell death.

Cytochalasin A, a cell-permeable fungal toxin and oxidized derivative of cytochalasin B, is an inhibitor of HIV-1 protease (IC50 = 3 μM). It inhibits actin polymerization, interferes with microtubule assembly by reacting with sulfhydryl groups, and serves as an antibiotic and bactericidal active agent.
