Description
Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (CAS 556-67-2) is a research chemical with inherent estrogenic activity, used in studies of endocrine disruption and breast cell biology. It promotes anchorage-independent growth in MCF-10A/F cells, induces DNA damage at high concentrations, and downregulates BRCA1, making it relevant for in vitro toxicology and carcinogenesis research.
