## Abstract Fetal exposure to dioxins affects brain development and influences behaviors in human and laboratory animals. However, the cellular target and mechanisms of the neurotoxic action of dioxins are largely unknown. To investigate the molecular basis for the neurotoxicity of dioxins, pregnan
We analyzed the function of a DNA domain located upstream of the cytochrome P4501A1 gene in wild-type (Hepa lclc7) mouse hepatoma cells and in high-activityvariant (HAV) cells that overtranscribe the gene in response to the inducer 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Transfection experiments
Oral doses of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) were administered twice within 7 d (total concentration 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, or 100 g TCDD/kg body weight) to flounder (Platichthys flesus). After 10 d of exposure, flounder were sacrificed, and the effects of TCDD exposure on hepatic microsomal
