    The generation of HepG2 transmitochondrial cybrids to reveal the role of mitochondrial genotype in idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury

    Amy Louise Ball, Carol E Jolly ... Amy E Chadwick
    HepG2 transmitochondrial cybrids of haplogroup J genome had increased sensitivity to aspects of mitochondrial dysfunction induced by tolcapone and 2-hydroxyflutamide, compared to haplogroup H, thus cybrids provide a practical system to investigate the consequences of mitochondrial genome on drug-induced hepatotoxicity.
