AHR — PTGS2
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Regala et al., Mar Environ Res 2004
:
For example, iNOS,
COX-2 , and CYP1A are
induced by both inflammation and
AhR ligands
Chang et al., Carcinogenesis 2007
:
Third, although the
aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) did not
play a role in BaP induced
COX-2 expression, the potentiation effect of E ( 2 ) itself was AhR dependent
Fritsche et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2007
:
Specifically,
AhR activation by UVB
leads to ( i ) transcriptional induction of cytochrome P450 1A1 and ( ii ) EGF receptor internalization with activation of the EGF receptor downstream target ERK1/2 and subsequent induction of
cyclooxygenase-2
Degner et al., J Nutr 2009
(Breast Neoplasms) :
Targeting of
aryl hydrocarbon receptor mediated activation of
cyclooxygenase-2 expression by the indole-3-carbinol metabolite 3,3'-diindolylmethane in breast cancer cells ... Because the
activation of
cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression by
AhR ligands may contribute to inflammation and tumorigenesis, we investigated the epigenetic regulation of the COX-2 gene by TCDD and the reversal effects of DIM in MCF-7 breast cancer cells
Puga et al., Biochem Pharmacol 1997
(Liver Neoplasms, Experimental) :
Induction of
Cox-2 is in fact
dependent on the presence of a functional
Ah receptor , since it can be blocked by antisense oligonucleotides to Ah receptor mRNA
Vogel et al., Arch Biochem Biophys 1998
:
The main aim of this study was to examine whether PGHS-2 mRNA expression can be changed by acute TCDD in vivo and, second, we were also interested in whether modulation of
PGHS-2 is
mediated by the
aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) which is known to be involved in the transcriptional control of TCDD induced phase 1 and phase 2 enzymes
