Abstract: Purpose : The purpose of the present study was to investigate the regional dist ribution of CYP1A1 mRNA in rat brain and the effect of Deltamethrin on CYP1A1 gene expression. Methods : By the methods of RT2PCR and dot blot analysis. Results : By the methods of RT2PCR and dot blot , it was revealed that the regional dist ribution of CYP1A1 mRNA varied in different brain ; Deltamethrin inhibited the expression of CYP1A1 mRNA , especially in cerebral cortex , under the t reatment of Deltamethrin with the dose of 12. 5mg.kg - 1 . d - 1 ip. for five days. Conclusion : These result s demonst rated that Deltamethrin markedly inhibited CYP1A1 gene expression.
