Combretastatin A-1 (Standard)

Combretastatin A-1 (Standard) is the analytical standard of Combretastatin A-1. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Combretastatin A-1 is a microtubule polymerization inhibitor that binds to the colchicine-binding site of tubulin. Combretastatin A-1 inhibits the Wnt/β-catenin pathway through tubulin depolymerization mediated AKT deactivation. Combretastatin A-1 exhibits anti-tumor and anti-vascular effects[1][2][3].
