Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Under pathological conditions associated with inflammation, the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters that regulate drug response is markedly down-regulated. However, details of the mechanism underlying their down-regulation are still unknown. In this study, we have investigated the molecular mechanisms by which pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 regulates human CYP1A2 and CAR expression, utilizing in vitro system. Our results show that the IL-6 responsive transcription factor DEC1 could act as a common repressor on their promoters.
