1 Elevated rates of 2- and 4-methoxyestradiol (2- and 4-MeOE2) formation in PCB-treated cultures were measured as activities of CYP1A1 and CYP1B1, respectively. Polychlorinated Biphenyls cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
2 Northern blot analyses confirmed that exposure of MCF-7 cells to PCBs 81, 126, and 39 caused highly elevated levels of the CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 mRNAs. Polychlorinated Biphenyls cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
3 Exposure of MCF-7 cells to 3,3",4,4",5,5"-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB 169) resulted in elevated levels of the CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 mRNAs, but did not cause elevated rates of E2 metabolism; rather, 4-MeOE2 production was depressed to below control levels in PCB 169-treated cultures. Polychlorinated Biphenyls cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
4 In microsomal assays, inhibition of cDNA-expressed human CYP1B1 by PCBs 169 and 126 was demonstrated. Polychlorinated Biphenyls cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
5 These studies with one subgroup of PCBs, the non-ortho-substituted congeners, underscore the complexity and diversity of effects of PCBs, as individual congeners were found both to induce expression and to inhibit activity of human CYP1B1 and CYP1A1. Polychlorinated Biphenyls cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
