title: Inhibition of DNA topoisomerase I activity by diethylstilbestrol and its analogues.
abstract: Diethylstilbestrol and its derivatives were tested to determine their inhibitory effects on the relaxation activity of DNA topoisomerase I using cell lysates from Chinese hamster V79 cells. Among the derivatives investigated, (+/-)-indenestrol B, (+/-)-IB, showed the strongest inhibitory effect.
