  • Patent number: 6162920
    Abstract: The invention relates to pharmacologically active compounds that have the ability to influence the polymerisation and depolymerisation of tubulin.A range of natural mitosis toxins are used as anti-tumor agents or are in the process of being clinically tested. There are various classes of such mitosis toxins that either demonstrate their cytotoxic action by inhibiting the polymerisation of microtubules in the spindle system (for example, Vinca alkaloids, colchicine) or achieve their cytotoxic action by a GTP-independent increase in the polymerisation of the tubulin and by preventing the depolymerisation of microtubules (for example, taxol, taxoters).Owing to their physico-chemical properties, hitherto not understood, and as a result of the characteristics of neoplastic cells, mitosis toxins have a certain selectivity for tumor cells, but there still remains a not inconsiderable cytotoxicity towards non-transformed cells.
