2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a prototype and the most potent chemical of the polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (dioxins). A variety of studies on the toxic effects of dioxin and related compounds have been conducted internationally since 1990.(omitted)

In order to understand the mechanism of action of TCDD, we have examined the effect of COX-inhibitors on cyplal activity. We observed the effect of COX-inhibitor on EROD activity in C57BL/6 mouse in vivo. And we also evaluated the effect of COX-inhibitors on cyplal mRNA, mouse cyp1a1 promoter activity and EROD activity in Hepa cell.(omitted)

Saururus chinensis Baill (Saururaceae) is a perennial plant that has been used in the treatment of edema, jaundice and gonorrhea in Korean folk medicine. This study was carried out to investigate the inhibitive effects of Saururus chinensis Baill (SCB) on lipid metabolism in Sprague-DaweIy rat(SD-rat) accutely exposed to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD). After 7 days from TCDD(1$\mu$g/kg) injection, SCB(200mg/kg) was administered into rats intraperitoneally for 4 weeks. (omitted)

The aim of this study was to find out the effect of hypoxic condition on the regulation of cyplal gene expression. pcyplal-Luc construct was cloned and transfected into Hepa I cells. When Hepa-I cells containing pcyplal-Luc were treated by DFO (desferrioxamine) which is iron-chelating agent, the stimulatory effect of luciferase by TCDD was decreased. This inhibitory effect of desferrioxamine on the luciferase activity was dose dependent and abolished by concomitant treatment with N$\^$G/-nitro-ι-arginine. And when cobalt chloride which is known as a hypoxia inducing chemical was administrated, the stimulatory effect of luciferase by TCDD was also decreased. This inhibitory effect of cobalt chloride on the luciferase activity was dose dependent and abolished by concomitant treatment with N$\^$G/-nitro-ι-arginine. These data showed that hypoxic condition down regulates cyplal gene expression and this might be through nitric oxide action.

CYP1B1 enzyme metabolize PAHs and estradiol. CYP1B1 metabolize estradiol to 4-hydroxyestradiol that is considered as carcinogenic metabolite. Luciferase activity was induced about 20 folds over that control by 1 nM TCDD (2,3,7,8-tetrchlorodibenzo-p-dioxin) and these inductions were dose-dependent. Recent industrialized society, human hasbeen widely been exposed to widespread environmental contaminants such as PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon) that are originated from the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. PAHs are known to be ligands of the AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor). Induction of cytochrome P4501B1(CYP1B1) in cell culture is widely used as a biomarket for PAHs. Therefore we have studied the effect of PAHs in the human breast cancer cells MCF-7 to evaluate bioactivity of PAHs. Cytochrome P4501B1(CYP1B1) is known to be inducible by xenobiotic compounda such as policyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and dioxins such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachloro-dibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD). And these induction of CYP1B1 is also regulated by many categories of chemicals. In order to investigate the effects of several chemicals on CYP1B1 gene expression in luciferase gene, and then transfected into these cells. After treatment of chemicals, the luciferase activity was measured. We examined effects of PAHs on the CYP1B1-lucifrease reporter gene and CYP1B1 mRNA level. Benzo(k)fluoranthene showed strong response to CYP1B1 promoter activity stimulation, and also CYP1B1 mRNAs increase in MCF-7 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. flvonoids such as genistein decreased B(k)F induced luciferase activity at low concentration. it exhibited stimulatory effect at high concentration.
