ABSTRACT:
Methods for the measurement and prediction of response to hepatotoxicants and carcinogens through the detection of metabolites in a mammal are provided. The metabolites can be used as biomarkers, including efficacy biomarkers, surrogate biomarkers, and toxicity biomarkers. The methods find use for early prediction of toxicity, target identification/validation, and monitoring of drug efficacy.
