Biological function summary
The AhR plays an important role in the regulation of detoxification enzymes such as cytochrome P450s. This receptor functions as a sensor for environmental toxins activating detoxification pathways once bound to ligands. It also contributes to the modulation of immune responses and development processes. The AhR often forms part of a larger protein complex to exert its effects on gene expression and cellular processes.
Pathways
The AhR significantly participates in the xenobiotic metabolism pathway and the dioxin signaling pathway. It interacts with proteins such as ARNT and cytochrome P450 enzymes to mediate the cellular response to toxins. The activity of AhR regulates the expression of phase I and phase II detoxification enzymes making it an integral part of the body’s defense against environmental chemicals.

Function
Ligand-activated transcription factor that enables cells to adapt to changing conditions by sensing compounds from the environment, diet, microbiome and cellular metabolism, and which plays important roles in development, immunity and cancer (PubMed : 23275542, PubMed : 30373764, PubMed : 32818467, PubMed : 7961644). Upon ligand binding, translocates into the nucleus, where it heterodimerizes with ARNT and induces transcription by binding to xenobiotic response elements (XRE) (PubMed : 23275542, PubMed : 30373764, PubMed : 7961644). Regulates a variety of biological processes, including angiogenesis, hematopoiesis, drug and lipid metabolism, cell motility and immune modulation (PubMed : 12213388). Xenobiotics can act as ligands : upon xenobiotic-binding, activates the expression of multiple phase I and II xenobiotic chemical metabolizing enzyme genes (such as the CYP1A1 gene) (PubMed : 7961644, PubMed : 33193710). Mediates biochemical and toxic effects of halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (PubMed : 34521881, PubMed : 7961644). Next to xenobiotics, natural ligands derived from plants, microbiota, and endogenous metabolism are potent AHR agonists (PubMed : 18076143). Tryptophan (Trp) derivatives constitute an important class of endogenous AHR ligands (PubMed : 32818467, PubMed : 32866000). Acts as a negative regulator of anti-tumor immunity : indoles and kynurenic acid generated by Trp catabolism act as ligand and activate AHR, thereby promoting AHR-driven cancer cell motility and suppressing adaptive immunity (PubMed : 32818467). Regulates the circadian clock by inhibiting the basal and circadian expression of the core circadian component PER1 (PubMed : 28602820). Inhibits PER1 by repressing the CLOCK-BMAL1 heterodimer mediated transcriptional activation of PER1 (PubMed : 28602820). The heterodimer ARNT : AHR binds to core DNA sequence 5'-TGCGTG-3' within the dioxin response element (DRE) of target gene promoters and activates their transcription (PubMed : 28602820).
