Noscapine is extensively used in research focused on cell division and microtubule dynamics. As a non-narcotic compound found in opium poppy, it serves as an important tool for studying the mitotic spindle apparatus in cell biology. Researchers utilize Noscapine to investigate its binding properties with tubulin, analyzing how it affects tubulin polymerization and ultimately influences cell division processes. This application is for understanding the mechanisms that control cell proliferation and stability. Additionally, Noscapine is involved in studies aimed at elucidating the molecular pathways of microtubule assembly and disassembly, providing insights that are fundamental for the development of novel strategies to study cellular structures and functions.
