Colcemid is a colchicine (Item No. 9000760) derivative that inhibits tubulin polymerization as potently as colchicine (IC50 = 2.1 and 2.4 ?M, respectively) but is less toxic.{24891,24890,24892} At very low (nanomolar) concentrations, colcemid suppresses microtubule dynamicity and inhibits cell migration, while at micromolar levels it blocks microtubule assembly, arresting cells in metaphase.{24892,24893,24888} Mitotic block by colcemid is used to synchronize cells and for karyotyping in cytogenetic studies.{24893,24894} Prolonged exposure to colcemid can activate p53, leading to apoptosis.{24889}
