Peer-Reviewed
Publications

Open access, peer-reviewed publications ensure that knowledge is a public good. HESI believes that accessible research is critical for equitable engagement, diverse collaboration, and increased interdisciplinary conversation. We strive to achieve open access on all publications, and more than 200 publications from HESI programs have been published in the last decade.

Options for Imaging Cellular Therapeutics In Vivo: A Multi-Stakeholder Perspective

Cytotherapy, 2021

Helfer BM, Ponomarev V, Patrick PS, Blower PJ, Feitel A, ...

Cell-based therapies have been making great advances toward clinical reality. Despite the increase in trial activity, few therapies have successfully navigated late-phase clinical trials and received market authorization. One possible explanation for this is that additional tools and technologies to enable their ...

Ontogeny of Hepatic Transporters and Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes in Humans and in Nonclinical Species

Pharmacological Reviews, 2021

van Groen BD, Nicolaï J, Kuik AC, Van Cruchten S, van Peer E, ...

The liver represents a major eliminating and detoxifying organ, determining exposure to endogenous compounds, drugs, and other xenobiotics. Drug transporters (DTs) and drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) are key determinants of disposition, efficacy, and toxicity of drugs. Changes in their mRNA and protein expression levels ...

Ecological Thresholds of Toxicological Concern: A Review

Frontiers in Toxicology, 2021

Baron MG, Otter, RR, Connors KA, Kienzler A, & Embry MR

The ecological threshold of toxicological concern (ecoTTC) is analogous to traditional human health-based TTCs but with derivation and application to ecological species. An ecoTTC is computed from the probability distribution of predicted no effect concentrations (PNECs) derived from either chronic or extrapolated acute ...

Recommendations for Conducting the Rodent Erythrocyte Pig‐a Assay: A Report from the HESI GTTC Pig‐a Workgroup

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, 2021

Dertinger SD, Bhalli JA, Roberts DJ, Stankowski LF, Gollapudi BB, ...

The rodent Pig‐a assay is a flow cytometric, phenotype‐based method used to measure in vivo somatic cell mutation. An Organization for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) test guideline is currently being developed to support routine use of the assay for regulatory purposes (OECD project number ...

Environmental Epidemiology and Risk Assessment: Exploring a Path to Increased Confidence in Public Health Decision-Making

Global Epidemiology, 2021

Déglin SE, Chen CL, Miller DJ, Lewis RJ, Chang ET, Hamade AK, ...

Throughout history, environmental epidemiology has proven crucial to identify certain threats to human health and to provide a basis for the development of life-saving public health policies. However, epidemiologists are facing challenges when studying tenuous threats such as environmental exposure to chemicals, whose ...

Use of the ZDF Rat to Model Dietary Fat Induced Hypercoagulability is Limited by Progressive and Fatal Nephropathy

Journal of Pharmacological and Toxicological Methods, 2021

Pugsley MK, Brooks MB, Fishman CE, Katavolos P, Chiang AY, ...

The study (Pugsley et al., 2021. Journal of Pharmacological and Toxicological Methods) focused on the effects of high versus low dietary fat on the development of Type 2 diabetes in obese male ZDF rats, including biomarkers to detect early signs of hypercoagulability and vascular injury in the absence of overt thrombosis. Results ...
