Introduction
Microtubules:
▣ Microtubules are composed of a
single type of globular protein,
called tubulin.
▣ Tubulin is the major building block
of microtubules.
▣ This intracellular cylindrical
filamentous structure is present in
almost all eukaryotic cells.

FZ destabilizes tubulin network in human
NSCLC cells
The microtubule cage around the nucleus appeared to have
lost its intactness when compared with the control mock
treated cells.
A549 cells were treated with 1 uM FZ or 50 ng/ml colchicine for 24 h. Following treatment,
the cells were processed for immunofluorescence using anti α-tubulin primary and FITC
conjugated secondary antibodies. (Nuclei were counter stained with propidium iodide)
