Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)-mediated perturbations in gene expression during early stages of CD4+ T-cell differentiation

Activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) by its prototypic ligand, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), mediates potent suppression of T-cell dependent immune responses. The suppressive effects of TCDD occur early during CD4+ T-cell differentiation in the absence of effects on prolif...
