Discodermolide
Catalog No. A31867

Discodermolide is a potent microtubule-stabilizing agent that exerts its effects by binding to tubulin and enhancing microtubule polymerization, leading to G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells. With a Ki of 0.4 μM, it effectively inhibits cancer cell proliferation, including those resistant to Paclitaxel. Discodermolide is a valuable tool for research on breast and colon cancer, providing insights into microtubule dynamics and potential therapeutic strategies.
