Exposures during Pregnancy, Acetaminophen Overdoses, and Organs-on-a-Chip Are Featured in Toxicological Sciences in August

An in-depth look at the use of microphysiological systems (e.g. organs-on-a-chip) and the effects of exposures—to phthalates and nanomaterials—during pregnancy are some of the research highlights in the August 2022 issue of Toxicological Sciences (ToxSci).

In the issue, an In-Depth Review provides a “Microphysiological Systems Evaluation: Experience of TEX-VAL Tissue Chip Testing Consortium,” while a Systematic Review examines “Phthalate Exposures and Placental Health in Animal Models and Humans.”

The issue also features two ToxSpotlight articles:

• Nanomaterial Inhalation During Pregnancy Alters Systemic Vascular Function in a Cyclooxygenase-Dependent Manner
• Recovered Hepatocytes Promote Macrophage Apoptosis Through CXCR4 After Acetaminophen-Induced Liver Injury in Mice
