Podophyllotoxin (PPT) is the active ingredient in Podofilox, a medical cream used to treat genital warts and molluscum contagiosum. It is not recommended for HPV infections without external warts. It can be applied either by a healthcare provider or the patient themselves. Podophyllotoxin is a non-alkaloid lignin extracted from the roots and rhizomes of plants of the genus Podophyllum. A less refined form known as podophyllum resin is also available, but has greater side effects. Podophyllotoxin was first isolated in pure form in 1880 by Valerian Podwyssotzki (1818 – 28 January 1892), a Polish-Russian privatdozent at the University of Dorpat (now Tartu, Estonia) and assistant at the Pharmacological Institute there. PPT is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.

Roles Classification
Biological Role(s): tubulin modulator
Any substance that interacts with tubulin to inhibit or promote polymerisation of microtubules.
plant metabolite
Any eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in plants, the kingdom that include flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms.
microtubule-destabilising agent
Any substance that interacts with tubulin to inhibit polymerisation of microtubules.
antimitotic
Any compound that inhibits cell division (mitosis).
Application(s): antineoplastic agent
A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
keratolytic drug
A drug that softens, separates, and causes desquamation of the cornified epithelium or horny layer of skin. Keratolytic drugs are used to expose mycelia of infecting fungi or to treat corns, warts, and certain other skin diseases.
