    Product Description

    Vinorelbine is a semisynthetic vinca alkaloid with microtubule destabilizing activity.1,2 It inhibits microtubule polymerization and blocks mitosis at the metaphase/anaphase transition, preventing HeLa cell proliferation with an IC50 value of 1.25 nM.3 In in vitro and in vivo models, vinorelbine has demonstrated additive effects when combined with other antimitotic agents to reduce the proliferation of various solid tumor, lymphoma, or lung cancer cell lines.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
