Table 3 Cytotoxicity screen of stably transfected HepG2 (ARE reporter). Cells were seeded at 2 × 104 cells/well in a 96-well plate overnight and then subsequently treated with 10 μM for all NCE (1–22), OA-NO2, DMF or CDDO-Im (0.1 and 1 μM) for 18 hours. Cell viability was determined by the MTT assay. The data was normalized to the media alone treatment (cells with new media) and expressed as a percent. All data represents the means ± SEM of at least three independent experiments (within each individual experiment, there was a minimum of four replicates per treatment). c, p < 0.01 vs DMSO.
