Correlation between gene expression of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (Arnt), cytochromes P4501A1 (CYP1A1) and 1B1 (CYP1B1), and inducibility of CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 in human lymphocytes.

Abstract excerpt
The relationships between gene expression of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (Arnt), cytochromes P4501A1 (CYP1A1), 1B1 (CYP1B1), CYP1A1, and the inducibility of CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 were determined in 32 cultivated human lymphocytes. Cytochrome P450 induction was performed by incubating lymphocytes with benzanthracene. The relative gene expression levels were...
