芳香族碳氢化物羟化酶是机体代谢外来的和内源性化合物的重要酶类,它可使许多化合物通过代谢解毒,但也能代谢激活一些化合物成为细胞毒物、致突剂、致癌剂。细胞培养和整体动物实验都证明许多化合物包括一些致癌物、促癌物能影响该酶的活性。 Aromatic hydrocarbons hydroxylase is the metabolism of foreign and endogenous compounds, an important enzyme, it can make many compounds through metabolic detoxification, but also can be metabolically activated a number of compounds into cytotoxic, neurotropic agents, carcinogens. Cell culture and whole animal experiments have shown that many compounds including some carcinogens, carcinogens can affect the activity of the enzyme.
