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

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dioxins are ubiquitous environmental pollutants and activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription factor. It has been reported that testosterone represses 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin– induced transcription of the cy...
