Abstract:
A stable cell line was developed to assess activation of rat pregnane X receptor (rPXR) by xenobiotics. Characterization revealed that the greatest response occurred with dexamethasone (6-10 fold increase) while rifampicin failed to transactivate rPXR. Rodent PXR transactivation assays can be used to understand species differences in enzyme induction.
