Paclitaxel (Taxol) Description
Paclitaxel, also known as Taxol, is a chemotherapeutic agent extracted from the bark of the Pacific yew tree, Taxus brevifolia. It is widely used in the treatment of various cancers, including ovarian, breast, lung, and pancreatic cancers, due to its mechanism of stabilizing microtubules, thereby inhibiting cell division and inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. Paclitaxel’s effectiveness in slowing or stopping cancer cell growth makes it a cornerstone in oncology treatment regimens.
