Abstract excerpt
The aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that regulates the expression of several drug-metabolizing enzymes and has been implicated in immunosuppression, teratogenesis, cell-specific hyperplasia, and certain types of malignancies and toxicities. The mouse Ahr gene 5' proximal promoter region, which contains four potential Sp1 motifs, is required for efficient basal...
