AHR agonist 10

AHR agonist 10 is a potent AHR agonist (EC50 = 2.01 nM). AHR agonist 10 can elevate the transcript levels of key AHR downstream pathway target genes, including CYP1A1 and CYP1B1. AHR agonist 10 can downregulate the expression levels of CD36, IL-18 and shows low cytotoxicity (>40 μM) to normal cells. AHR agonist 10 can suppress the expression of CCL5, CCL20, IL-6, IL-8, S100A9, TLR4, TNF-α, and TNFR1, demonstrating that AHR agonist 10 effectively modulate inflammatory responses through AHR dependent signaling pathways. AHR agonist 10 can be used for psoriasis research.
