Description

2,2',3,4,6,6'-Hexachlorobiphenyl is an analog of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which are toxic pollutants that have been widely used in industrial applications. This compound has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells by targeting specific proteins involved in cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. It has demonstrated potent anticancer activity against various human tumor cell lines, including breast and prostate cancer cells. 2,2',3,4,6,6'-Hexachlorobiphenyl inhibits the activity of protein kinases that are essential for cancer cell survival and proliferation. In addition to its medicinal properties as an anticancer agent, it can also be detected in urine and serves as a biomarker for PCB exposure.
