    Glossary Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor

    protein that binds environmental toxins, affecting gene expression

    The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) is a protein within cells that binds to various environmental toxins, such as dioxins, and activates the expression of certain genes. This receptor plays a crucial role in how the body responds to these toxins, influencing processes like detoxification, immune response, and even skin and hair health.
