Detection of affected toxicological endpoints by D-score. (A) Rats were treated with prototypical hepatotoxicants acetaminophen (APAP), phenobarbital (PB), clofibrate (CFB) or acetamidofluorene (AAF), and the hepatic microarray data were obtained at 3, 6, 9 and 24 h after treatment. The D-score highlights the activated toxicological endpoints elicited by the chemicals: glutathione depletion and inflammation by APAP, Cyp2b/Cyp3a induction by PB, PPARα activation by CFB and Cyp1 induction by AAF; (B) All the D-scores except for that of Cyp2b exhibited a clear dose-response.
