Predicted versus observed activity of PCB mixtures toward the ryanodine receptor.

Non-dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (NDL PCBs) alter the activity of the ryanodine receptor (RyR), and this activity is linked to developmental neurotoxicity. Most work to date has focused on the activity of single congeners rather than relevant mixtures. The current study assessed the RyR activity of single congeners or binary, tertiary, and complex PCB mixtures.
