Antibody to the major purified cytochrome P-450 induced by 3-methylcholanthrene in rat liver strongly inhibits aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity of uninduced and benz[a]anthracene-induced human monocytes and lymphocytes. Antibody to the cytochrome P-450 induced by phenobarbital has relatively little or no effect on the aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity of the same human cells.
