We report alterations in serum estradiol-17β (E_2) and hepatic estrogen receptor (ER) DNA-binding activity in female rainbow trout given a single ip injection of 0, 6.25, 12.5, 25, or 50 mg β-naphthoflavone (BNF)/kg body weight, followed by sacrifice at 24 or 48 hr. BNF affected E_2 in a dichotomous fashion at 24 hr, and reduced E_2 at 48 hr with increasing BNF. DNA binding by ER was decreased in an apparently dose-dependent manner after 24 hr and increased after 48 hr. These data suggest that the regulation of ER by AHR agonists may occur both at the ER promoter, and also secondarily via E_2, and that the differential effects observed are both time and dose dependent.
