Vinblastine sulfate ia a plant alkaloid that arrests the cell cycle in G2/M phase by blocking mitotic spindle formation. Vinblastine sulfate inhibits normal microtubule assembly and causes aberrant tubulin polymerization. Vinblastine sulfate blocks binding of tubulin to microtubule proteins.Vinblastine sulfate Triggers Raf-1 activation, phosphorylation of Bcl-2 family proteins and induction of p53 expression. Cancer chemotherapeutic agent. Vinblastine sulfate is a microtubule disrupter. Vinblastine sulfate induces apoptosis in cultured hepatocytes and human lymphoma cells.Vinblastine sulfate shown to inhibit autophagosome maturation.

For example, to modify the dose of resveratrol used for a mouse (22.4 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 22.4 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for resveratrol of 11.2 mg/kg.
