 Toxicity prediction based on stem cells and tissue derived from stem cells plays a very important role in the fields of biomedicine and pharmacology. Here we report on qRT-PCR data obtained by exposing 20 compounds to human embryonic stem (ES) cells...
Toxicity evaluation is an extremely important process during drug development. It is usually initiated by experiments on animals, which is time-consuming and costly. To speed up such a process, a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) st...
Use of laboratory animals for systemic toxicity testing is subject to strong ethical and regulatory constraints, but few alternatives are yet available. One possible approach to predict systemic toxicity of chemicals in the absence of experimental da...
