Calpain inhibition stimulates caspase-dependent apoptosis induced by taxol in NIH3T3 cells [PDF]
Taxol is an anticancer drug that triggers apoptosis in a wide spectrum of cancers such as ovarian, breast, lung, head and neck, and bladder carcinoma by both caspase-dependent and -independent apoptosis mechanisms.

Translation regulation after taxol treatment in NIH3T3 cells involves the elongation factor (eEF)2 [PDF]
Changes to the translational machinery that occur during apoptosis have been described in the last few years. The two principal ways in which translational factors are modified during apoptosis are: (i) changes in protein phosphorylation and (ii ...

Upregulation of miR-129-5p increases the sensitivity to Taxol through inhibiting HMGB1-mediated cell autophagy in breast cancer MCF-7 cells [PDF]
Although Taxol has improved the survival of cancer patients as a first-line chemotherapeutic agent, an increasing number of patients develop resistance to Taxol after prolonged treatment.

TAXOL INDUCES CELL DEATH WITH CYTOPLASM VACUOLIZATION IN PARAPTOSIS-LIKE BUT NOT ONCOSIS FASHION IN ASTC-a-1 CELLS [PDF]
Recently, we found that high concentration of taxol (70 μM) induced cell death with cytoplasm vacuolization, the typical characteristic of both paraptosis and oncosis, in human lung carcinoma (ASTC-a-1) cells.

Iso-Seq analysis of the Taxus cuspidata transcriptome reveals the complexity of Taxol biosynthesis
Background Taxus cuspidata is well known worldwide for its ability to produce Taxol, one of the top-selling natural anticancer drugs. However, current Taxol production cannot match the increasing needs of the market, and novel strategies should be ...

How taxol modulates microtubule disassembly. [PDF]
Measurement of the affinity of microtubules for the anti-cancer drug taxol is problematic, because microtubules are not stable at the very low concentrations required to detect taxol dissociation.
