Description

2,3,3',4,4',5,5'-Heptachlorobiphenyl is an analog of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that has been shown to have tumor-inhibiting properties. It acts as a kinase inhibitor and disrupts the cell cycle in cancer cells. Studies have also shown that it inhibits elastase activity and reduces the level of certain proteins in urine, indicating its potential use as an anticancer agent. Additionally, 2,3,3',4,4',5,5'-Heptachlorobiphenyl induces apoptosis in Chinese hamster ovary cells and human leukemia cells. Its unique characteristics make it a promising candidate for further research into cancer treatment options.
