Molecular mechanisms involved in the anticancer activity of BISPMB in oesophageal cancer cells
BisPMB (E, Z)-1,8-(Bis-p-methoxyphenyl)-2,3,7-trithiaocta-4-ene 7-oxide) is a synthetic analogue of the garlic compound ajoene. It is 12 times more active at inhibiting the growth of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma WHCO1 cells and displays selectivity for cancer cells over normal cells. BisPMB i...
