AhR modulator-1 is primarily used in research to study the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling pathway. It helps in understanding the role of AhR in immune responses, cellular metabolism, and detoxification processes. This compound is valuable in developing therapies for diseases influenced by AhR activity, such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory conditions. Additionally, it aids in exploring the impact of environmental toxins and pollutants that activate AhR, providing insights into their mechanisms of toxicity. Its application extends to drug discovery, where it serves as a tool for identifying and testing potential AhR-targeting pharmaceuticals.
