Description

2,2',4,4',5,6'-Hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB-153) is a potent inhibitor of kinases and has been shown to induce apoptosis in tumor cells. It is an analog of medicinal inhibitors used for the treatment of cancer. PCB-153 has been tested on both Chinese hamster ovary cells and human cancer cell lines and has demonstrated its anticancer properties by inhibiting protein kinase activity. In addition, it has been found in urine samples from individuals with cancer, suggesting that it may play a role in the development or progression of this disease. The potential therapeutic benefits of PCB-153 as an anticancer agent are currently being investigated.
