beta-Naphthoflavone is an exogenous aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) ligand. beta-Naphthoflavone can activate AHR to participate in various biological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and metabolism. beta-Naphthoflavone has antioxidant activity and can exert its antioxidant function by regulating the activity of antioxidant enzymes. beta-Naphthoflavone is also a non-carcinogenic CYP1A inducer and can be used to study aristolochic acid (AAI) induced renal injury[1][2][3].
