Gel filtration medium G-100, a substance designed for protein purification, enables the separation and purification of proteins through gel filtration.
IG-105 is a potent microtubule inhibitor with potential anticancer activity. IG-105 inhibits microtubule assembly by binding at colchicine pocket. IG-105 shows a potent anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo and has good safety in mice. IG-105 showed a potent activity against human leukemia and solid tumors in breast, liver, prostate, lung, skin, colon, and pancreas with IC(50) values between 0.012 and 0.298 mumol L. It was also active in drug-resistant tumor cells and not a P-glycoprotein substrate. It inhibited microtubule assembly followed by M-phase arrest, Bcl-2 inactivation, and then apoptosis through caspase pathways.
