Abstract
⺠Pb2+ significantly inhibited the induction of CYP1A1 through transcriptional and posttranslational mechanisms. ⺠The transcriptional mechanism is evidenced by the decrease in XRE- and increase in ARE-reporter genes. ⺠The posttranslational mechanism is evidenced by the ability of HO-1 chemical inhibitors and HO-1 knockdown to restore of the Pb2+-mediated effect.
