Fig. 5. Functional analysis of the Ahr promoter chimeric constructs.

Fig. 5

AhR promoter-luciferase reporter plasmids were constructed and co-transfected into hCatTg and wild-type MAECs with a β-galactosidase expression plasmid as described in Materials and Methods. Luciferase activity was measured using a luminescence assay and expressed relative to the luminosity of the β-galactosidase assay. Values denote means ± SEM of five independent transfection experiments. *P <0.01 vs. the same genotype cells transfected with AhR-P2; †P <0.01 vs. wild type cells transfected with the same plasmid construct.
