Research Abstract |
We prepared GFP-fused EB1-expressing human breast cancer cells. The growth rate of the microtubule plus-end was measured using the positions of EB1 assembly over time. Analysis of the dynamics of the EB1-GFP comet showed that the microtubule growth rates decreased when the cells were treated with anticancer drugs. We also measured the microtubule growth rates in tumor-bearing mice by using an original stereotaxic instrument. Thus, alteration in EB1-GFP dynamics is an effective indicator for the effects of anticancer drugs.
