Abstract excerpt
The influence of the Ah locus on the hepatic uptake and metabolism of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) was studied using isolated hepatocytes from Ah responsive C57BL/6J (C57) and nonresponsive DBA/2J (DBA) mice. Hepatocytes from control and TCDD-pretreated C57 and DBA mice were incubated with purified [14C] TCDD (2.2 microM) for 8 hr in the metabolism studies or 2 hr in the uptake studies. Mice were...
