Human-based New Approach Methodologies in Developmental Toxicity Testing: A Step Ahead from the State-of-the-art with a Feto-placental Organ-on-a-chip Platform
Abstract:Developmental toxicity testing urgently requires the implementation of human relevant new approach methodologies (NAMs) that better recapitulate the peculiar nature of human physiology during pregnancy, especially the placenta and the maternal/fetal interface, which represent a key stage for the human lifelong health. Fit-for-purpose NAMs for the placental-fetal interface are desirable to improve the biological knowledge of environmental exposure at molecular level and to reduce the high cost, time and ethical… Show more
