Title: New synthetic inhibitors of microtubule depolymerization.

Authors: Klar U, Graf H, Schenk O, Röhr B, Schulz H.

Abstract: A new class of borneol esters that might be considered as biological analogs of paclitaxel regarding their action on microtubules has been found. By structure-activity optimizations, compounds stabilizing microtubules much better than paclitaxel while showing a remarkably reduced cytotoxic activity were obtained. This dissoziation will open completely new therapeutic areas.
