Abstract excerpt
P-450 IIC7 and IIIA2 mRNAs are constitutively expressed in the hepatic tissue under developmental control. Both forms--as well as IIIA1, 90% homologous to IIIA2 mRNA--display positive modulation by phenobarbital a prototype inducer of the liver monooxygenases and a strong promoter of experimental...
