Systems toxicology: from basic research to risk assessment. [PDF]
Systems Toxicology is the integration of classical toxicology with quantitative analysis of large networks of molecular and functional changes occurring across multiple levels of biological organization. Society demands increasingly close scrutiny of the

Systems biology meets toxicology [PDF]
In this issue of the Archives of Toxicology, Hans Westerhoff and colleagues present a comprehensive review on how systems biology tools can be applied to toxicology (Geenen et al. 2012; this issue). For decades, scientists in the field of toxicology have taken advantage of available mathematical models.

Network-Based Methods for Prediction of Drug-Target Interactions
Drug-target interaction (DTI) is the basis of drug discovery. However, it is time-consuming and costly to determine DTIs experimentally. Over the past decade, various computational methods were proposed to predict potential DTIs with high efficiency and ...

Casting a wide net: use of diverse model organisms to advance toxicology
Toxicology – the study of how chemicals interact with biological systems – has clear relevance to human health and disease. Persistent exposure to natural and synthetic chemicals is an unavoidable part of living on our planet; yet, we understand very ...

Non-precautionary aspects of toxicology [PDF]
Empirical studies in toxicology aim at deciphering complex causal relationships, especially in regard to human disease etiologies. Several scientific traditions limit the usefulness of documentation from current toxicological research, in regard to ...

BAP1 in cancer: epigenetic stability and genome integrity
Mutations in BAP1 have been identified in a hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome and in sporadic tumours. Individuals carrying familiar BAP1 monoallelic mutations display hypersusceptibility to exposure-associated cancers, such as asbestos-driven ...

The Serosal Immune System of the Thorax in Toxicology [PDF]
The thoracic cavities receive increasing attention in toxicology, because inhaled fibers and (nano)particles can reach these cavities and challenge the local lymphoid tissues. The thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities are controlled by the serosal immune system with its special, loosely organized lymphoid clusters, namely the fat-associated lymphoid ...
