A cytosolic receptor to which TCDD binds with high affinity has been reported in a number of rodent tissues, but the endogenous/natural ligand is not known. However, lumichrome, a metabolite of riboflavin, competed with 3H-TCDD for binding to the cytosolic receptor. Neither riboflavin nor riboflavin-5-phosphate competed for binding to the TCDD receptor in rat liver cytosol. Lumichrome is the first known endogenous chemical in the rat to exhibit affinity for the TCDD receptor.
在许多啮齿动物组织中都报道了一种能与2,3,7,8-四氯二苯并对二恶英(TCDD)高亲和力结合的胞质受体,但内源性/天然配体尚不清楚。然而,核黄素的一种代谢产物光色素能与3H-TCDD竞争结合胞质受体。核黄素和核黄素-5-磷酸都不能竞争大鼠肝细胞溶胶中TCDD受体的结合。光色素是大鼠中首个已知的对TCDD受体具有亲和力的内源性化学物质。
