Background:

Epothilone A (Epo A) is a naturally occurring microtubule-stabilizing macrolide that was first isolated from the myxobacterium?Sorangium cellulosum. The IC50 value of Epothilone A in HCT-116 cell line is?4.4 nM [1].

It has been found that the SKOV-3 human ovarian cancer cells were susceptible to Epothilone A with IC50 value of 20.4?±?1.4 nM [2]. The antiproliferative capacity of Epothilone A in SKOV-3 cell line (measured as IC50?after 72?h continuous treatment) was six times greater than that of PTX’s. Besides, Epothilone A induced time coursedependent apoptosis and necrosis [2].?
