An adherent cell differentiation and cytotoxicity (ACDC) assay was developed using pluripotent J1 mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Adherent mESCs were used to evaluate chemical-induced effects on both stem cell viability and differentiation using an in-cell western technique after a 9-day culture. DRAQ5/Sapphire700 stains were used to quantify cell number. Myosin heavy chain protein was used as a marker of cardiomyocyte differentiation and was corrected for cell number, thereby separating cytotoxicity and effects on differentiation. Acetic acid, 5-fluorouracil and bromochloroacetic acid were evaluated using the embryonic stem cell test and ACDC assay. Both systems distinguish the relative potencies of these compounds. TaqMan low-density arrays were used to characterize the time course of differentiation and effects of chemical exposure on multiple differentiation gene markers. The ACDC assay is a technique that can be used to evaluate the effects of xenobiotics on mESC differentiation and cell number using a single assay.
