Early in vitro toxicity screening might improve the success rate of new chemical entities in pharmaceutical development. In previous studies, the advantage of cytotoxicity screening with the HepG2 cell line was shown. Cytotoxicity could be identified for 70% of the compounds in these assays as compared with known toxicity in either in vitro assays in primary hepatocytes, in in vivo assays in rats,...
The HepG2 cell line is a valuable tool for screening for cytotoxicity in the early phase of pharmaceutical development. Some compounds which produce reactive and toxic metabolites, are classified as being toxic in HepG2 cells. In contrast, other compounds, which are toxic in primary human hepatocytes, are not toxic in HepG2 cells. A difference in metabolism between HepG2 cells and primary human hepatocytes...
