Description

Ethirimol is a growth regulator that inhibits the growth of plants. It is used in agriculture, horticulture, and forestry for control of weed growth, delaying fruit ripening, reducing the size of fruit trees, and inhibiting the spread of plant diseases. In laboratory settings, ethirimol has been shown to have synergistic interactions with other pesticides such as triclopyr. Ethirimol has also been shown to inhibit cell division in T-cell lymphomas by binding to the C1-C4 haloalkyl group on the surface of these cells. The mechanism underlying this effect is not well understood but may be due to its binding to monoclonal antibodies or uptake by granules in cells.
