Summary
[Homo sapiens] AHR deficiency imapirs TLR and NFkB-mediated proinflammatory gene expression after activation by a classical stimulus, such as LPS. (Demonstrated in murine model)
[Mus musculus] Ahr deficiency impairs TLR and NFkB-mediated proinflammatory gene expression after activation by a classical stimulus, such as LPS.
[Mus musculus] Innate expression of Ahr plays a protective role in T-cell-induced colitis by suppressing T helper 17 cells, thus inhibiting proinflammatory cytokine production.
[Mus musculus] Uropathogenic Escherichia coli suppresses neutrophil migration early in bacterial cystitis by eliciting an Ido1-mediated increase in local production of kynurenines, which act through the Ahr to impair neutrophil chemotaxis.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000106546:
This gene encodes a ligand-activated transcription factor involved in the regulation of biological responses to planar aromatic hydrocarbons. This receptor has been shown to regulate xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes such as cytochrome P450. Its ligands included a variety of aromatic hydrocarbons. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
