abstract：:The mammalian CYP2E1 gene encodes a cytochrome P450 enzyme that is markedly increased soon after birth. In vitro evidence suggests that the rat CYP2E1 gene is positively regulated by the transcription factor HNF-1 or a protein displaying DNA-binding properties similar to HNF-1. In contrast to newborn wild-type mice an...
