Bioactivity | AHR activator 1 is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor activator with activity regulating fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2)-induced branching morphogenesis. AHR activator 1 prevents the formation of cellular branches by inhibiting AHR signaling. AHR activator 1 also associates with adhesion of dissociated linkers, suggesting the importance of dissociated linkers in the inhibition of branching by AHR agonists. Studies of AHR activator 1 reveal its functional role in mammary gland morphogenesis and play a role in inhibiting FGF-induced invasion[1]. |
