Description
Vinblastine, also known as Vincaleukoblastine, Velban, or CHEBI:27375, is a naturally occurring indole alkaloid extracted from the leaves of Vinca rosea (periwinkle plant). It functions as a potent chemotherapeutic agent by inhibiting microtubule formation during cell division, making it highly effective in cancer treatment research. Vinblastine is widely used in pharmaceutical and biomedical research for studying its cytotoxic and anti-proliferative effects.
