“…Since then, a number of transcription factors for Cyp2a5 and their response elements in the Cyp2a5 promoter region have been identified. The transcription factors identified to date, such as aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), upstream stimulatory factors (USF-1 and USF-2), hepatic nuclear facor-4-alpha (HNF-4α), nuclear factor I (NF-I), constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), and nuclear factor-E2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) have been shown to play an important role in cellular stress and the immune response, oxidative stress and detoxification of xenobiotics, cell cycle and proliferation, and lipid and glucose metabolism (Cai et al, 2002;Maglich et al, 2002;Abu-Bakar et al, 2004;Ulvila et al, 2004;Abu-bakar et al, 2007;Arpiainen et al, 2007Arpiainen et al, , 2008Kirby et al, 2011).…”
