DNA damage and repair proteins in cellular response to sulfur mustard in Iranian veterans more than two decades after exposure [PDF]
Delayed effects of sulfur mustard (SM) exposure on the levels of five important damage/repair proteins were investigated in 40 SM-exposed veterans of Iran-Iraq war and 35 unexposed controls.

Vertical Membrane‐Free Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for High‐Throughput In Vitro Studies and Drug Screening
This novel microfluidic organ‐on‐a‐chip (OoC) platform enables cost‐effective, high‐throughput in vitro modeling. With vertical compartmentalization and gravity‐driven flow, it eliminates porous membranes and external pumps. Successfully generating intestine, cartilage, and tendon models, this study demonstrates drug responses, including 5‐fluorouracil

Modeling drug- and chemical- induced hepatotoxicity with systems biology approaches
We provide an overview of computational systems biology approaches as applied to the study of chemical- and drug-induced toxicity. The concept of ‘toxicity pathways’ is described in the context of the 2007 US National Academies of Science report ...

Renal tubular injury is a major contributor to kidney disease, yet remains poorly understood due to the lack of predictive models. This study presents a high‐throughput 3D renal proximal tubule model on the AngioPlate platform integrated with automated TEER measurements (AngioTEER), enabling real‐time monitoring of drug‐induced nephrotoxicity ...

Agent-based modeling: a systematic assessment of use cases and requirements for enhancing pharmaceutical research and development productivity. [PDF]
A crisis continues to brew within the pharmaceutical research and development (R&D) enterprise: productivity continues declining as costs rise, despite ongoing, often dramatic scientific and technical advances. To reverse this trend, we offer various

HARMLESS Early Warning System for Advanced Materials
The HARMLESS Early Warning System tackles Advanced Materials (AdMa) risk governance by providing a framework, organised in two tiers, underpinned with methods/tools to support risk assessors in the pre‐assessment preceding risk assessment. It allows for initial screening to identify AdMa with concerns considering exposure, hazards, sustainability and ...

Using Zebrafish to Screen Developmental Toxicity of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are found in many consumer and industrial products. While some PFAS, notably perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), are developmentally toxic in mammals, the vast majority of PFAS

Modeling and insights into the structural characteristics of drug-induced autoimmune diseases
The incidence and complexity of drug-induced autoimmune diseases (DIAD) have been on the rise in recent years, which may lead to serious or fatal consequences. Besides, many environmental and industrial chemicals can also cause DIAD.

Varieties of Exploratory Experimentation in Nanotoxicology [PDF]
There has been relatively little effort to provide a systematic overview of different forms of exploratory experimentation (EE). The present paper examines the growing subdiscipline of nanotoxicology and suggests that it illustrates at least four ways ...
