Extrapolation of experimental data from animals to man.
Conditions for extrapolating toxicologic data from animals to man were studied. In the search for general regularities associated with the comparative sensitivity of humans and various species of animals to toxins, it was shown that the toxicity parameters of compounds and the biological constants of mammals correlate with body weight. This relationship is well described by a rectilinear regres...
متن کاملExtrapolation from mouse to man.
Despite the above caveat, the impressive new technology described by Gupta et al1 in this issue of Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging should help to resolve a number of issues relative to the hypothesis that the failing heart is energy starved and that depressed high-energy phosphate flux through the creatine kinase (CK) system is a causative factor.2,3 It will allow longitudinal measurements ...
متن کاملGenetic variability and extrapolation from animals to man: some perspectives on susceptibility to chemical carcinogenesis from aromatic amines.
I would like to consider the problem of chemical carcinogenesis arising from exposure to certain aromatic amines as a basis for my remarks about the predictive value for man of data obtained in other species and biological systems. This example was chosen because it illustrates the complexity of extrapolation very well, and there is new knowledge derived from a variety of disciplines including ...
متن کاملMesothelioma in man and experimental animals.
Asbestos has been established as the cause of most cases of diffuse malignant mesothelioma occurring in the industrialized world. The morphology of mesothelioma may be complex, and the employment of chemical, histochemical and ultrastructural studies are often helpful in identification. Diagnostic difficulties may to some degree blur the extent of its prevalence and reliance on exposure history...
متن کاملOrgans from animals for man.
In the following review some of the problems of xenotransplantation shall be discussed, based on the few experimental data available so far and on reports in the literature describing investigations which may be of importance for xenotransplantation. The impact of gravity on the upright posture of man versus almost all other mammals, the dysfunction between enzymes and hormones in different spe...
