CAS 143-67-9: Vinblastine sulfate
Description:Vinblastine sulfate is a potent alkaloid derived from the periwinkle plant, Vinca rosea, and is primarily used in chemotherapy for treating various types of cancer, including Hodgkin's lymphoma and testicular cancer. It functions as a mitotic inhibitor, disrupting the process of cell division by binding to tubulin, which prevents the formation of microtubules necessary for mitosis. This action ultimately leads to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in rapidly dividing cancer cells. Vinblastine sulfate is typically administered intravenously and is known for its side effects, which can include nausea, vomiting, hair loss, and bone marrow suppression. The compound is a white to off-white powder, soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol, with a molecular formula that reflects its complex structure. Due to its significant therapeutic effects and potential toxicity, vinblastine sulfate is used under strict medical supervision, and its dosage must be carefully managed to minimize adverse effects while maximizing its anticancer efficacy.
