Description
We provide here the alterations in gene expression profiles of HepaRG cells, a validated model for cellular steatosis, exposed to three concentration of quizalofop-p-ethyl, isoxaflutole and mesotrione Overall design: Differentiated HepaRGTM cells (HPR 116) were purchased from Biopredic International. The cells were kept in the general purpose medium until day 8, when the culture becomes well organized and includes well-delineated trabeculae and many canaliculi-like structures. Three concentrations of the different pesticide active ingredients (quizalofop-p-ethyl, isoxaflutole and mesotrione ) were then tested from day 8 to day 14. In order to ensure coverage of a wide range of potential biological effects, three concentrations of each active principle were tested; a concentration representative of low environmental exposure (0.1 uM), an intermediate concentration (10 uM) and a high concentration (1000 uM).
