Bin toxins are potent against mosquito larvae. Recently, their anticancer activities are also shown. Here we showed possible anticancer activity of Bin toxin produced by Lysinibacillus sphaericus. Treatment with a high concentration of Bin inhibits cell proliferation in various human cancer cells This work suggests that Bin toxin may be optimized as a novel potential cancer-therapeutic agent.
