Description:4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid is a hydrocarbon with a carboxylic acid group. It can act as an antagonist to the hydrocarbon receptor (HCR). 4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid has been shown to be effective in treating colon cancer cells in vitro, and has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in vivo. This compound is also effective at inhibiting the proliferation of human colon cancer cells (Caco2) that have been exposed to benzo(a)pyrene, an aromatic hydrocarbon found in cigarette smoke. The mechanism by which this drug inhibits cell proliferation is not fully understood but may involve inhibition of cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1), which metabolizes benzo(a)pyrene into carcinogenic intermediates. 4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid has also been shown to be anisotropic and microreactor, meaning
