Assignment Details Cell and Molecular Biology • Taxol - Originally produced from a natural substance in a tree (Pacific yew). Used for ovarian cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, and others. Inhibits mitotic spindles so they cannot line up the chromosomes. • Adrucil - Used to treat many cancers, including those of the colon, stomach, pancreas, breast, and cervix. It acts by preventing DNA synthesis in cells, so they cannot replicate their DNA. • Talazoparib - A chemical under research for use in advanced breast cancer. One possible impact of this drug on cells is mis-segregation of chromosomes (linked-up copies of duplicated chromosomes do not split and move to separate new cells as they should). • Cytochalasin B - A chemical that has been proposed…arrow_forwardAntiparkinson agent Format as follows. .
