Cyclochlorotine[1] (CC) is a secondary metabolite of the fungus Penicillium islandicum[2] that causes hepatic necrosis and has carcinogenic properties.[3] It is listed as an IARC Group 3 carcinogen.

Chemically, it is a chlorinated macrocyclic pentapeptide derived from the amino acids 3-phenyl-β-alanine, serine, dichloroproline, and aminobutyric acid[disambiguation needed File:InterlanguageLinks-Asset-Pencil-Hover.gif].[4]

Although tributyltin (TBT) was recently found to induce apoptosis in different immune cells.[5][clarification needed]
