Brassinosteroids as monooxygenase effectors in mammal adenocarcinoma
A number of the natural phytohormones and their synthetic stereoisomers has been studied. It has been found for the first time that brassinosteroids could act as regulators of monooxigenase activity in tumor cells, and the relationship between inhibitor efficiency and structure of phytohormones has been demonstrated. Some modified brassinosteroid synthetic analogues could have antitumor activity.
