Dioxin Disrupts Thyroid Hormone and Glucocorticoid Induction of <i>klf9</i> , a Master Regulator of Frog Metamorphosis
2021-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Frog metamorphosis, the development of an air-breathing froglet from an aquatic tadpole, is controlled by thyroid hormone (TH) and glucocorticoids (GC). Metamorphosis is susceptible to disruption by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo- p -dioxin (TCDD), an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonist. Krüppel-Like Factor 9 ( klf9 ), an immediate early gene in the endocrine-controlled cascade of expression changes governing me...
