Figure 1From: Aryl hydrocarbon receptor-dependent upregulation of Cyp1b1 by TCDD and diesel exhaust particles in rat brain microvesselsAhR expression in different rat tissues and AhR immunolocalization in isolated rat brain microvessels. (A) RT-PCR of liver, kidney, choroid plexus, total brain, and rat brain microvessels for rat AhR. The RT-PCR shows a signal for AhR mRNA at 233 bp. (B) Western blot of immunoprecipitated AhR from rat brain microvessels. (C) Representative image of a brain microvessel immunostained for AhR (green); nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue).Back to article page
