1 Expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in human nonpigmented ciliary epithelial cells: induction of CYP1B1 expression by TCDD. Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
2 CYP1B1 mRNA was strongly and dose dependently induced by TCDD. Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
3 CYP1B1 protein was detected only after TCDD treatment of the human nonpigmented ciliary epithelial cells. Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
4 CYP1B1 promoter was activated by TCDD. Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSIONS: TCDD potently induces CYP1B1 mRNA in human nonpigmented ciliary epithelial cells, suggesting the involvement of an AHR-mediated pathway in the regulation of ciliary CYP1B1 expression. Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
6 CONCLUSIONS: TCDD potently induces CYP1B1 mRNA in human nonpigmented ciliary epithelial cells, suggesting the involvement of an AHR-mediated pathway in the regulation of ciliary CYP1B1 expression. Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
