Highlight report: Interspecies extrapolation by physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling
Recently, several articles have been published questioning the usefulness of animal experiments for prediction of human toxicity (Leist and Hartung, 2013). For example, it has been reported that there is almost no correlation of gene expression alterations induced by inflammatory stimuli in humans and mice (Seok et al., 2013). However, a recent study of Thiel et al. (2015) demonstrates that thi...
متن کاملHighlight report: The pseudolobule in liver fibrosis
Recently, Seddik Hammad from Heidelberg University published an interesting report about a frequent misinterpretation in research on liver fibrosis (Hammad et al., 2017): in mice repeated doses of carbontetrachloride (CCl4) cause a pattern of fibrosis, in which pseudolobules occur that are lined by fibrotic streets, which can be visualized by Sirius red staining. In the center of these pseudolo...
متن کاملPhysiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling of nanoparticles.
Rapid expansion of nanoparticle research demands new technologies that will enable better interpretation of experimental data and assistance in the rational design of future nanoparticles. The use of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models may serve as powerful tools to meet these needs. PBPK models have been successfully applied for the study of the absorption, distribution, metabo...
متن کاملInterspecies extrapolation by physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling
Recently, Christoph Thiel and colleagues from Aachen University published an improved physiologically based pharmacoki-netik modeling (PBPK) technique for mouse to human extrapolation (Thiel et al., 2015). This publication will be awarded by the Ebert Prize 2016 of the American Pharmacist Association, which represents the oldest pharmacy award in the United States. The translation of preclinica...
متن کاملHighlight report: Blueprint for stem cell differentiation into liver cells
Stem cell research is of high interest, because precursor cells can be directed to differentiate into practically all mature cell types. This represents a potential perspective for therapeutics of severely damaged organs and also an alternative to animal drug and toxicity testing. Nonetheless, an essential question still remains: How similar are differentiated stem cells to the desired mature c...
