Human and animal hepatocytes are now being used as an in vitro technique to aid drug discovery by predicting the in vivo metabolic pathways of drugs or new chemical entities (NCEs), identifying drug-metabolizing enzymes and predicting their in vivo induction. Because of the difficulty of establishing whether the cytotoxic susceptibility of human hepatocytes to xenobiotics/drugs in vitro could be used to predict in vivo human hepatotoxicity, a comparison of the susceptibility of the hepatocytes of human and animal models to six chemical classes of drugs/xenobiotics in vitro have been related to their in vivo hepatotoxicity and the corresponding activity of their metabolizing enzymes. This study showed that the cytotoxic effectiveness of 16 halobenzenes towards rat hepatocytes in vitro using higher doses and short incubation times Correlated well with rat hepatotoxic effectiveness in vivo with lower doses/longer times. The hepatic/hepatocyte xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme activities of various animal species and human have been reviewed for use by veterinarians and research scientists. Where possible, recommendations have been made regarding which animal hepatocyte model is most applicable for modeling the susceptibility to xenobiotic induced hepatotoxicity of those humans with slow versus rapid metabolizing enzyme polymorphisms. These recommendations are based on the best human fit for animal drug/xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in terms of activity, kinetics and substrate/inhibitor specificity. The use of human hepatocytes from slow versus rapid metabolizing individuals for drug metabolism/cytotoxicity Studies; and the research use of freshly isolated rat hepatocytes and "Accelerated Cytotoxicity Mechanism Screening" (ACMS) techniques for identifying drug/xenobiotic reactive metabolites are also described. Using these techniques the molecular hepatocytotoxic mechanisms found in vitro for seven classes of xenobiotics/drugs were found to be similar to the rat hepatotoxic mechanisms reported in vivo.
