Taxol, a diterpene alkaloid isolated from the bark of Taxus brevifolia, has a unique mechanism of action. The drug promotes the formation of microtubule polymers in a cell, by reversibly and specifically binding the beta-subunit of tubulin. Taxol is administered intravenously by a 3-24-hour infusion

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the capacity of taxol, a microtubule stabilizer, to inhibit collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), a model of rheumatoid arthritis.
METHODS
Louvain rats were immunized with type II collagen (day 0) to induce arthritis. Taxol was administered beginning on day 2 (prevention

The paclitaxel represents first agent from novel class of antineoplastic drugs-taxoids. The clinical development of paclitaxel was initially hampered by hypersensitivity reactions. Current dosage regiments with premedication reduced the incidence of these side effects to less than 3%. The major

Taxol, a plant product, has significant activity against certain rodent and human xenograft tumors. It promotes microtubule assembly in vitro, in contrast to vinca alkaloids, which inhibit assembly. In this phase I study, taxol was administered as a 24-hour continuous intravenous (IV) infusion in 65

Paclitaxel (Taxol) a taxane antineoplastic agent causing irreversible microtubule aggregation with activity against breast, ovarian, lung, head and neck, bladder, testicular, esophageal, endometrial and other less common tumors was derived from the bark of the Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia). Phase I

BACKGROUND
Taxol, a complex plant product (a diterpene) extracted from the bark of Taxus brevifolia, has demonstrated substantial anticancer activity in ovarian and breast cancers, malignant melanoma, and acute myelogenous leukemia. Due to allergic reactions in phase I and early phase II studies,

The use of paclitaxel (Taxol), a microtubule stabilizer, for cancer treatment is often limited by its associated peripheral neuropathy (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy [CIPN]), which predominantly results in sensory dysfunction, including chronic pain. Here we show that paclitaxel CIPN
