The BMD approach has been used to compare the cell viability (MTT assay) of different rat (C6 and PC12, glial and neuronal, respectively) and human cell lines (D384 and SK-N-MC, glial and neuronal, respectively) after 24-h exposure to the following neurotoxic substances: Manganese Chloride (MnCl2), Methyl-mercury (Me-Hg) and the enantiomers of Styrene Oxide (SO). For all rat and human cell lines, the potency of the examined compounds was: MnCl2S-SOR-SOMe-Hg. A preliminary comparison with in vivo toxicity data for these substances gave rise to consistent results. Whereas a reasonable agreement between in vitro and in vivo data has been found for Mn and styrene oxide, a wide scatter of LOAEL has been reported for Me-Hg and these appear to be either much higher or lower than the BMD for the MTT assay we observed in vitro. |
