Abstract
In a 2x2 factorial designed experiment involving chlorobenzene and gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (lindane), the hepatotoxicity induced by a challenge dose of chlorobenzene was altered by the pretreatments due to selective changes in various metabolic pathways. These changes resulted in either (1) a marginally significant decrease in hepatotoxicity (chlorobenzene-pretreatment); (2) significant reduction in both the incidence and severity of the lesions (lindane-pretreatment); or (3) absence of centrilobular hepatocellular necrosis in all but 1 of 12 rats where a minimal degree of necrosis was present (chlorobenzene + lindane-pretreatment).
