Research Abstract |
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is known to be activated by its ligands, resulting in regulation of various genes. However, the biological functions of AhR have been not elucidated yet. Therefore, the influence of AhR on the biological functions was investigated by the metabolome analysis, which is the comprehensive analysis of metabolites. As a result, it was demonstrated that the activation of AhR leads to alteration of various metabolites. In addition, it was found that the metabolite profile is different between the presence and absence of AhR expression.
