Aryl hydrocarbon receptor-dependent induction of flavin-containing monooxygenase mRNAs in mouse liver.
Flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) are important in detoxication but generally are considered not to be inducible by xenobiotics. Our recent microarray studies revealed induction of FMO2 and FMO3 mRNAs by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in liver of mice with wild-type aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) but not in Ahr-null mice. The aim of the present study was to delineate mechanis...
متن کاملAryl hydrocarbon receptor regulates distinct dioxin-dependent and dioxin-independent gene batteries.
Conventional biochemical and molecular techniques identified previously several genes whose expression is regulated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). We sought to map the complete spectrum of AHR-dependent genes in male adult liver using expression arrays to contrast mRNA profiles in Ahr-null mice (Ahr(-/-)) with those in mice with wild-type AHR (Ahr(+)(/)(+)). Transcript profiles were de...
متن کاملRegulation of the Cyp2a5 gene involves an aryl hydrocarbon receptor-dependent pathway.
We have investigated the role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) in the regulation of the Cyp2a5 gene. The C57BL/6 and DBA/2 mouse strains with a genetically determined difference in AHR function were used to study the CYP2A5 induction by typical AHR ligands, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and 3-methylcholanthrene. The CYP2A5 mRNA up-regulation in these mouse strains showed a di...

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)–dependent induction of cytochromes P450 (P450) such as CYP1A1 by 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) and related polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is well characterized. We reported previously that MC treatment triggers a pronounced downregulation, particularly at the protein level, of mouse hepatic Cyp3a11, a counterpart of the key human drug-metabolizing enzyme CYP3A4...
