Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens COMT protein expression levels are statistically significantly reduced by both, catechol and phenolic metabolites of polychlorinated biphenyls: 2,5-dichlorobiphenyl, 2',5'-dichlorobiphenyl-2-ol, 2',5'-dichlorobiphenyl-2,3-diol, 2',5'-dichlorobiphenyl-3,4-diol, 2',5'-dichlorobiphenyl-4-ol, 2',4'-dichlorobiphenyl-4-ol, 2',4',6'-trichlorobiphenyl-4-ol, 2',4',6'-trichlorobiphenyl-3,4-diol, and 2',4',5'-trichlorobiphenyl-3,4-diol. The changes in COMT expression are abolished in the presence of the anti-estrogen ICI182780 down
