Paclitaxel used in chemotherapy of breast cancer is an inhibitor of mitosis and is obtained from plants. They block cell division, disrupt the function of microtubules and some enzyme proteins. They change the metabolism of amino acids and some other substances, such as nucleic acids, fat synthesis, and also affect cellular respiration. When we modeled breast cancer in 6-month-old rats and carried out chemotherapy using paclitaxel, we encountered various pathomorphological changes.
