In the last years, biomedical research was focused on cancer, since it is a leading cause of death in the developed countries. However several molecular targets were identified thus making necessary to find new strategies to improve the traditional chemotherapy. Aberrant tumors grow and spread, and they require their own blood supply. Some approaches of anticancer therapy utilize antiangiogenic drugs, including tubulin binding agents (TBAs). Here we focused our studies on several combretastatin-like molecules (TR-644, TR-764, 3b) which bind to tubulin with high affinity. We report the activity of our TBAs on endothelial cell cytoskeleton, cell motility, permeability, and other processes involved in angiogenesis. Our compounds strongly ind...
