Discovery of Small Molecule Inhibitors that Interact with γ‐Tubulin
23 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies have shown an overexpression of γ-tubulin in human glioblastomas and glioblastoma cell lines. As the 2-year survival rate for glioblastoma is very poor, potential benefit exists for discovering novel chemotherapeutic agents that can inhibit γ-tubulin, which is known to form a ring complex that acts as a microtubule nucleation center. We present experimental evidence that colchicine and...
