Aryl hydrocarbon receptor control of adaptive immunity.
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that belongs to the family of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors. Although the AhR was initially recognized as the receptor mediating the pathologic effects of dioxins and other pollutants, the activation of AhR by endogenous and environmental factors has important physiologic effects, including the regulat...
متن کاملGene-environment interactions in male reproductive health: Special reference to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling pathway
Over the last few decades, there have been numerous reports of adverse effects on the reproductive health of wildlife and laboratory animals caused by exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). The increasing trends in human male reproductive disorders and the mounting evidence for causative environmental factors have therefore sparked growing interest in the health threat posed to huma...
متن کاملEstrogen receptor and aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling pathways
Estrogen receptors (ERs) and the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) are ligand activated transcription factors and members of the nuclear receptor and bHLH-PAS superfamilies, respectively. AhR is involved in xenobiotic metabolism and in mediating the toxic effects of dioxin-like compounds. Crosstalk has been observed among AhR and nuclear receptors, but has been most well studied with respect to E...
متن کاملThe aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling pathway is modified through interactions with a Kelch protein.
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor with important roles in metabolic adaptation, dioxin toxicology, and vascular development. To understand the details of this signal transduction pathway, we have used the yeast two-hybrid system to identify proteins that physically interact with the AHR in a ligand-dependent manner. Using this strategy, we identified...
متن کاملSignaling and Regulation Upregulation of ABCG2 by Romidepsin via the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Pathway
Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACI) are promising anticancer agents and their use in combination with conventional anticancer drugs is currently under investigation. We previously reported cell line–specific upregulation of ABCG2, a multidrug resistance transporter shown to control oral bioavailability and CNS penetration, by the HDACI romidepsin, although the precise mechanism in a particul...
