Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 442D (In Vitro Skin Sensitisation: ARE-Nrf2 luciferase KeratinoSens™ test method)
- Version / remarks:
- Adopted 06-2018
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of study:
- ARE-Nrf2 luciferase KeratinoSens™ test method
- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- The KeratinoSens test (ARE-Nrf2 luciferase reporter assay) is part of an in vitro/in chemico testing strategy (OECD guidelines 442C-E) addressing The second Adverse Outcome Pathway Key Event of inflammatory responses as well as gene expression associated with specific cell signaling (stress) pathways such as the antioxidant/ electrophile response element (ARE)-dependent pathways. Mechanistically-based in chemico and in vitro test methods addressing the first three key events of the skin sensitisation AOP have been adopted for contributing to the evaluation of the skin sensitisation hazard potential of chemicals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Activation of the antioxidant/electrophile responsive element (ARE)-dependent pathway in keratinocytes
- Conclusions:
- In conclusion, the test item is classified as positive (activation of the antioxidant/electrophile responsive element (ARE)-dependent pathway in keratinocytes) under the experimental conditions described in this report.
- Executive summary:
The objective of this GLP compliant study according to OECD guideline 442D was to evaluate the ability of the test item to activate the antioxidant/electrophile responsive element (ARE)-dependent pathway in the KeratinoSens assay. The study procedures described in this report were based on the most recent OECD guideline. The test item was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide at 200 mM. From this stock 11 spike solutions in DMSO were prepared. The stock and spike solutions were diluted 100-fold in the assay resulting in test concentrations of 0.98 – 2000 μM (2-fold dilution series). The highest test concentration was the highest dose required in the current guideline. No precipitate was observed at any dose level tested. Three independent experiments were performed.
All experiments passed the acceptance criteria:
- The luciferase activity induction obtained with the positive control, Ethylene dimethacrylate glycol, was statistically significant above the threshold of 1.5-fold in at least one concentration.
- The EC1.5 of the positive control was within two standard deviations of the historical mean (41, 31 and 50 μM in experiment 1, 2 and 3, respectively). A dose response was observed and the induction at 250 μM was higher than 2-fold (2.49-fold, 3.24-fold and 2.49-fold in experiment 1, 2 and 3, respectively).
- Finally, the average coefficient of variation of the luminescence reading for the vehicle (negative) control DMSO was below 20% (12%, 12% and 9.6% in experiment 1, 2 and 3, respectively).
Overall it is concluded that the test conditions were adequate and that the test system functioned properly. In the first experiment, the test item showed no toxicity (no IC30 and IC50 value). A biologically relevant, dose-related induction of the luciferase activity (EC1.5 value of 21 μM) was measured. The maximum luciferase activity induction (Imax) was 7.23-fold leading to an individual run conclusion of positive.
In the second experiment, the test item showed no toxicity (no IC30 and IC50 value) and no biologically relevant induction of the luciferase activity (no EC1.5 value) was measured at any of the test concentrations. The maximum luciferase activity induction (Imax) was 1.28-fold leading to an individual run conclusion of negative.
Since the first two experiments were not concordant a third experiment was performed to provide a final conclusion.
In the third experiment, the test item showed no toxicity (no IC30 and IC50 value). A biologically relevant, dose-related induction of the luciferase activity (EC1.5 value of 13 μM) was measured. The maximum luciferase activity induction (Imax) was 9.47-fold leading to an individual run conclusion of positive.
The test item is classified as positive in the KeratinoSens assay since positive results (>1.5-fold induction) were observed at test concentrations < 1000 μM with a cell viability of >70% compared to the vehicle control in two out of three experiments. In conclusion, the test item is classified as positive (activation of the antioxidant/electrophile responsive element (ARE)-dependent pathway in keratinocytes) under the experimental conditions described in this report.
