HepaRG hepatocytes are less sensitive to DCF than HepG2 cells and undifferentiated HepaRG cells.
The lower sensitivity of HepaRG hepatocytes is related to their high detoxifying capacity.
Inhibition of glutathione transferases results in increased DCF cytotoxicity.
TNF-α potentiation of DCF cytotoxicity is not observed in undifferentiated HepaRG cells.
DCF-induced cholestasis typified by bile canaliculi dilatation is not aggravated by TNF-α.
