Taxol does not affect axonal transport in cultured neurites. Preincubation of this drug inhibits the effects of colchicine on axonal transport and morphology in cultured neurites. A reduction of the free tubulin density by preincubated taxol might prevent the disruption of microtubules by colchicine.
