For a set of hepatotoxic drugs, in vitro toxicity data from Open TG-GATEs [21] were analyzed, therapeutic and toxic doses were identified in the literature, and whole-body PBPK models were developed and validated. Toxic changes were then predicted at different timepoints (2 h, 8 h, 24 h) by comparing cellular response following drug administration of therapeutic and toxic doses and were subsequently evaluated with regard to key cellular processes, functional classes of genes, and individual genes, respectively.
