Application
Do you have application information on this product that you would like to share?
Docetaxel can be used to study antibiotics, cell biology, cell signaling, neuroscience and apoptosis and the cell cycle. Docetaxel has been used to study the prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, as well as the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer in patients contraindicated for standard chemotherapy. Docetaxel has also been used to study the role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and -2α in androgen insensitive prostate cancer cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Docetaxel is a taxane anti-cancer agent related to paclitaxel. It binds to and stabilizes the β-tubulin subunit of microtubules, preventing depolymerization of the mitotic spindle thus leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
