Mitochondrial dysfunction and the accumulation of lipid droplets (LD) contribute to the pathogenesis of liver diseases. Mitochondria bound to LD, termed peridroplet mitochondria (PDM), form a subpopulation with distinct functions compared to cytoplas...
Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) and their networks are important tools for the development of mechanistically based non-animal testing approaches, such as in vitro and/or in silico assays, to assess toxicity induced by chemicals. In the present study...
The current test systems employed by pharmaceutical industry are poorly predictive for drug-induced liver injury (DILI). The 'MIP-DILI' project addresses this situation by the development of innovative preclinical test systems which are both mechanis...
