Polymorphisms in the circadian expressed genes PER3 and ARNTL2 are associated with diurnal preference and GNβ3 with sleep measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sleep and circadian rhythms are intrinsically linked, with several sleep traits, including sleep timing and duration, influenced by both sleep homeostasis and the circadian phase.

Dioxin toxicity in vivo results from an increase in the dioxin-independent transcriptional activity of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
The Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) is the nuclear receptor mediating the toxicity of dioxins--widespread and persistent pollutants whose toxic effects include tumor promotion, teratogenesis, wasting syndrome and chloracne.

Repression of Activated Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor–Induced Transcriptional Activation by 5α-Dihydrotestosterone in Human Prostate Cancer LNCaP and Human Breast Cancer T47D Cells

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dioxins are ubiquitous environmental pollutants and activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription factor.

Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Nuclear Translocator in Hepatocytes Is Required for Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor–Mediated Adaptive and Toxic Responses in Liver [PDF]

open access: yesToxicological Sciences, 2010
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) plays a central role in the toxic responses to halogenated dibenzo-p-dioxins ("dioxins"), in the metabolic adaptation to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and in the development of the mature vascular system. A number of lines of evidence support the idea that the regulation of adaptive metabolism requires an AHR ...

Identification and Functional Characterization of the Transcription Factors AhR/ARNT in Dendroctonus armandi

open access: yesCells, 2022
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) belong to the bHLH-PAS (basic Helix–Loop–Helix–Period/ARNT/Single-minded) family of transcription factors, which participate in the sensing and transmitting ...

Identification of Functional Domains of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Nuclear Translocator Protein (ARNT) [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 1994
The activated aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and the AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT) bind DNA as a heterodimer. Both proteins represent a novel class of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH)-containing transcription factors in that (i) activation of AHR requires the binding of ligand (e.g., 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin [TCDD]), (ii) the xenobiotic ...

Association of aryl hydrocarbon receptor-related gene variants with the severity of autism spectrum disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2016
Exposure to environmental chemicals, such as dioxin, is known to have adverse effects on the homeostasis of gonadal steroids, thereby potentially altering the sexual differentiation of the brain to express autistic traits.

ARNT Inhibits H5N1 Influenza A Virus Replication by Interacting with the PA Protein

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Increasing evidence suggests that the polymerase acidic (PA) protein of influenza A viruses plays an important role in viral replication and pathogenicity. However, information regarding the interaction(s) of host factors with PA is scarce.

An aryl hydrocarbon receptor induces VEGF expression through ATF4 under glucose deprivation in HepG2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) not only regulates drug-metabolizing enzyme expression but also regulates cancer malignancy. The steps to the development of malignancy include angiogenesis that is induced by tumor microenvironments, hypoxia ...
