Validation of alternative methods for toxicity testing

Toxicology in Vitro : an International Journal Published in Association with BIBRA
L H BrunerR D Curren

Abstract

Many studies have been conducted in order to assess the validity of alternative methods as replacements forin vivo toxicity tests. The purpose of this review is to build on what has been learned in the course of this work by presenting a practical process that can be used to conduct future validation programmes. The important role of a clearly stated prediction model, which defines how to use the results from an alternative method to predict anin vivo toxicity endpoint, has been introduced. Computer simulations have been used to demonstrate that data-based guidance can be developed to assist in judging the performance of alternative methods assessed in a validation study. Additionally, statistical procedures have been used in order to provide guidance on choosing the appropriate number of reference test substances and number of participating laboratories to include in a validation study. The validation of alternative methods for eye irritation testing is used as a specific example to illustrate important concepts. Although the focus of the discussion is on the validation of alternative methods intended to replace currentin vivo tests, the procedures can be used to assess the performance of alternative methods intended for other...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
