Epothilone B

Epothilone B is a lipid of Polyketides (PK) class. Epothilone b is associated with abnormalities such as Myelosuppression, Measurable Disease, Neuropathy, Neutropenia and Thrombocytopenia. The involved functions are known as Cell Cycle Arrest, Apoptosis, Signal Transduction, Cytokinesis and Caspase Activation. Epothilone b often locates in Mitochondria, Cytoplasmic matrix, Microtubules, Spindle and Protoplasm. The associated genes with Epothilone B are TNFSF10 gene, DIABLO gene, FADD gene, BCL2 gene and BCL2L1 gene. The related lipids are Promega and Phosphatidylserines. The related experimental models are Xenograft Model and Mouse Model.
