Description
F16 is a potent growth inhibitor of the neu-overexpressing cells and also selectively inhibits proliferation of mammary epithelial as well as a variety of mouse mammary tumor and human breast cancer cell lines. F16 is a mitochondriotoxic compound, and triggers apoptosis or necrosis depending on the genetic background of the target carcinoma cell.
