  • Title: The Japanese toxicogenomics project: application of toxicogenomics.
    Author: Uehara T, Ono A, Maruyama T, Kato I, Yamada H, Ohno Y, Urushidani T.
    Journal: Mol Nutr Food Res; 2010 Feb; 54(2):218-27. PubMed ID: 20041446.
    Abstract:
    Biotechnology advances have provided novel methods for the risk assessment of chemicals. The application of microarray technologies to toxicology, known as toxicogenomics, is becoming an accepted approach for identifying chemicals with potential safety problems. Gene expression profiling is expected to identify the mechanisms that underlie the potential toxicity of chemicals. This technology has also been applied to identify biomarkers of toxicity to predict potential hazardous chemicals. Ultimately, toxicogenomics is expected to aid in risk assessment. The following discussion explores potential applications and features of the Japanese Toxicogenomics Project.
