Figure Lengend Snippet: RNA sequencing responses of LUHMES neurons to neurotoxicants. dLUHMES neurons were treated with parkinsonian toxicants 6HD, 6-hydroxydopamine 1 μM; MPP, 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium 5 μM, ROT, rotenone 1 μM; and additional neurotoxicants PQ 5 μM, ziram (ZIR) 2 μM, MHG 0.5 μM, and possible neurotoxicant MS275 5 μM (Vashishta and Hetman 2014). a Heatmap shows genes as rows and chemical treatments as columns. Colors indicate increased (red) or decreased (green) mRNA relative to vehicle control with color saturation at 32-fold. No cytotoxicity was observed after 24 h at these concentrations. b Bar graph shows mRNA reads counted per 100 million normalized mRNA transcripts for three metallothionein genes. Among 83 million mRNA reads for three replicate vehicle-treated samples, MT1G, MT1E, and MT2A reads numbered 2, 8, and 42 reads, respectively. ***Ziram-treated dLUHMES neurons yielded 53,000, 31,000 and 31,000 transcripts per 100 million for MT1G, MT1E, and MT2A, respectively. c Dot plot comparing RNA-Seq and qRT-PCR quantitation of responses by six biomarker genes using the samples from “a” above

Figure Lengend Snippet: Transcriptional responses of three biomarker genes to 15 toxicants in six cell lines. The six cell lines indicated at left were treated with vehicle or one of 15 toxicants. Transcriptional responses by DDIT3, MT1G, PDK4, and GAPDH were quantified by qRT-PCR at 6 h, and cell viability was assessed at 24 h as intracellular [ATP]. Below the four genes for each cell line is a row of cells that indicate cell viability. White indicates no detectable loss of viability whereas blue color saturation indicates the % of cell death 24 h post-treatment. Toxicant treatments were HCP, Hexachlorophene 10 μM; CAP, captan 10 μM; 6HD, 6-hydroxydopamine 3 μM; MAP, 4-(methylamino)phenol hemisulfate salt 5 μM; CR2, sodium dichromate 5 μM; CLM, chlorambucil 10 μM; MPP, 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium 10 μM; MNC, manganese chloride 10 μM; PQ, paraquat 10 μM; STA, staurosporine 2 μM; ROT, rotenone 3 μM; MS5, MS275 10 μM; TER, terfenadine 10 μM; MHG, methylmercury chloride 2 μM; ZIR, ziram, 6 μM
