PBOX 6(Cat No.:I012910) is a compound belonging to the pyrrolo-1,5-benzoxazepine (PBOX) family. It functions as a microtubule depolymerizer, disrupting the structure and dynamics of microtubules. By interfering with microtubule function, PBOX 6 exerts pro-apoptotic effects, promoting programmed cell death. These properties make PBOX 6 a potential candidate for anti-cancer therapies, as it targets the cytoskeleton and induces apoptosis, which could inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells.
