General Description

• Docetaxel is an analog of taxol, and is considered to be a cytotoxic, semisynthetic, second-generation taxane that exhibits antineoplastic, antibiotic, and antimicrotubule activities
• Docetaxel is capable of inhibiting cellular mitosis. This compound promotes the assembly of microtubules from tubulin dimers and stabilizes microtubules by preventing depolymerization. This stability inhibits the normal dynamic reorganization of the microtubule network that is essential for vital interphase and mitotic cellular functions. This results in the persistence of abnormal microtubule structures leading to cell-cycle arrest and cell death

Application

• Docetaxel can inhibit angiogenesis both in vitro and in vivo by acting on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) associated with cancer cells
• This compound has been used to investigate the effect of lysosomal autophagic flux in gastric cancer cells
• Some in vitro and in vivo studies have been performed in order to understand if the combination of docetaxel with stearidonic acid enhances cell death in human prostate cancer cells
• It has been used in vitro in prostate cancer stem-like cells (PCSCs) to test its effect on the notch signaling pathway
