Eighteen chemicals, most having been tested by the NTP in 2-year bioassays, were evaluated. Some of these chemicals are potent hepatotoxicants (e.g. DE71, PFOA, and furan) in rodents, some exhibit toxicity but have minimal hepatic effects (e.g. acrylamide and α,β-thujone), and some exhibit little overt toxicity (e.g. ginseng and milk thistle extract) based on traditional toxicological evaluations. Male Sprague Dawley rats were exposed once daily for 5 consecutive days by oral gavage to 8-10 dose levels for each chemical. Liver and kidney were collected 24 hours after the final exposure and total RNA was assayed using HTT with the rat S1500+ platform. HTT data were analyzed using BMD Express 2 to determine transcriptional gene set BMD values. BMDS was used to determine BMD values for histopathological effects from chronic or sub-chronic toxicity studies. For many of the chemicals, the lowest transcriptional BMDs from the 5-day assays were within a factor of 5 of the lowest histopathological BMDs from the toxicity studies. These data suggest that using HTT in a 5-day in vivo rat model provides reasonable estimates of BMD values for traditional apical endpoints. This approach may be useful to prioritize chemicals for further testing while providing actionable data in a timely and cost-effective manner.Background Factor VIIc, fibrinogen, and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) are cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and are modulated, in part, by fat type and amount. Objective We evaluated fat type and amount on the primary outcomes factor VIIc, fibrinogen, and PAI-1. Methods In the Dietary Effects on Lipoproteins and Thro
