Tubulin-IN-53

Tubulin-IN-53 is a potent Tubulin inhibitor with an IC50 of 6.06 μM. Tubulin-IN-53 inhibits the polymerization of tubulin by targeting the colchicine binding site of tubulin and destroys the microtubule network. Tubulin-IN-53 induces MCF-7 cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase and apoptosis, and inhibits cell migration accompanied by the decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential and increase the accumulation of ROS. Tubulin-IN-53 destroys the angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells.Tubulin-IN-53 can used for the study of cancers such as breast cancer and lung cancer[1].
