AhR is a ligand-activated transcription factor that plays a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and immune responses.
AhR is overexpressed in lung cancer cells and is associated with poor prognosis.
-Cell proliferation: AhR activation promotes cell growth and proliferation.
-Apoptosis: AhR activation inhibits apoptosis (programmed cell death), allowing cancer cells to survive.
-Angiogenesis: AhR activation promotes the formation of new blood vessels, which is essential for tumor growth.
-Immune suppression: AhR activation inhibits the immune response, allowing cancer cells to evade immune detection.
AhR regulates expression of CYP1A1, CYP1B1, and COX-2
AhR is often overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, liver, and skin cancer. AhR expression is often higher in tumor cells compared to normal cells.
