A selective aryl hydrocarbon receptor modulator 33-Diindolylmethane inhibits gastric cancer cell growth

摘要

BackgroundAryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor associated with gastric carcinogenesis. 3,3'-Diindolylmethane (DIM) is a relatively non-toxic selective AhR modulator. This study was to detect the effects of DIM on gastric cancer cell growth.
