1,2,3,4,7,8-Hexachlorodibenzofuran
Catalog No. A64119

1,2,3,4,7,8-Hexachlorodibenzofuran is a selective activator of the CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 enzymes. It induces the expression of these cytochrome P450 enzymes and aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor (AhRR) in human peripheral blood lymphocytes. This compound also stimulates ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase activity, achieving approximately 20% of the response observed with TCDD at a BMR20TCDD of 0.115-0.143 nM. Its ability to modulate these pathways makes it a valuable tool for studying biological responses to environmental pollutants and the mechanisms of xenobiotic metabolism.
