eng Characterization of Acetaminophen Toxicity in Human Kidney HK-2 Cells Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose causes liver injury, but in some cases it is associated also with renal impairment. While several studies exist in relation to acetaminophen nephrotoxicity, no reports have been published describing intracellular changes related to APAP nephrotoxicity in vitro. Because proximal tubular cells are considered to constitute a secondary site of druginduced injury after hepatocytes, our study's aim was to estimate the toxicity in the human HK-2 cell line. Renal cell lines; in vitro tests
