QUICK LINKS

Vincristine Sulfate, a dimeric Vinca alkaloid, may act to bind to Tubulin via a protein self association reaction. This compound acts as a Tubuiln inhibitor by binding to sites at the ends of microtubules, which regulate the inhibition of Tubulin dimer addition to microtubule ends. Experiments have reported Vincristine Sulfate to demonstrate a capacity to suppress growth of proliferating cells through marked apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G2/M. The cell death caused by this agent seems to result in a sustained accumulation of endogenous ceramide levels. Ceramide, has been proposed as a lipid second messenger with specific antiproliferative mediating responses. Vincristine Sulfate is an inhibitor of MAO. Vincristine Sulfate is also a substrate of PGP and CYP3A4.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from SKSK-N-MC cells were treated with Vincristine Sulfate (sc-201434), lysed and analyzed by WB. Pro-caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-3 expression levels were compared for treated and untreated cells. A definite increase in cleaved caspase-3 expression levels was observed, thus suggests/supports this alkaloid has the ability to induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. -SCBT QC
