The aryl hydrocarbon receptor regulates the expression of genes involved in many cell processes and its dysregulation has been implicated in different diseases. Here, the authors identify dietary monoterpenoid carvone as an atypical non-competitive antagonist of human aryl hydrocarbon receptor and demonstrate that it can protect against ultraviolet skin damage in female mice.
