Abstract

The invention provides methods of identifying toxic agents, e.g., hepatotoxic agents, using differential gene expression. Also provided are methods of predicting the risk level and or injury type of NSAIDs. Also disclosed are novel nucleic acid sequences whose expression is differentially regulated by NSAIDs.
