Description

Nordihydroguaiaretic acid is a molecule that can induce apoptosis in cells. It binds to protein kinase and inhibits the activity of these enzymes. It also has an inhibitory effect on cell cycle, leading to cancer cell death. This agent has been shown to be effective as an anti-cancer drug in human cancer cells that have been transplanted into mice. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid also prevents the growth of tumor cells by inhibiting the activity of cancer cells and inducing their death.
