Lack of cytotoxicity of ticrynafen in primary cultures of rat liver cells. 1982

D Acosta, and D B Mitchell, and K S Santone, and A Bock, and W Lewis

Primary cultures of hepatocytes obtained from neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats were grown in arginine-deficient, ornithine-supplemented medium to inhibit fibroblastic overgrowth and to selectively isolate relatively pure cultures of parenchymal hepatocytes. This system of primary hepatocytes was used to study the potential cytotoxicity of ticrynafen by measuring cytoplasmic enzyme leakage, cell viability,, and total protein per culture dish. Hepatic cultures were treated with the drug in concentrations ranging from 10(-3)M to 10(-6)M and for durations from 2 to 8 h. The results of the study indicate that ticrynafen was minimally toxic to the hepatocytes.
