Risk Assessment SS<br />

While animal models have been the cornerstone <strong>of</strong> experimental toxicology and<br />

safety assessment for the last two centuries, the question <strong>of</strong>ten arises whether<br />

the results seen in one species are relevant to what may be expected in another,<br />

particularly when the extrapolation is being made to man. Genomic information<br />

could change this problem dramatically. At one level, comparisons <strong>of</strong> coding<br />

regions and upstream regulatory regions across genomes can provide clues as to<br />

similarities and differences between species vis-à-vis the molecular components<br />

<strong>of</strong> a cell and their regulation. One example where this approach has provided<br />

valuable insights is the nuclear receptor gene family. These genomic comparisons<br />

can also be used to inform the use <strong>of</strong> non-mammalian models <strong>of</strong> toxicity<br />

such as Caenorhabditis elegans. Complementary to such genomic comparisons,<br />

mRNA pr<strong>of</strong>iling with microarrays allows a global view <strong>of</strong> toxicant-induced<br />

transcriptome alterations in various cell types, tissues and species, and allows an<br />

experimental view <strong>of</strong> similarities and differences in signaling and response pathways.<br />

Thus transcriptome alterations can be compared in vivo between rat and<br />

canine models, and in vitro between rat, canine, and human hepatocytes. The<br />

promise is that such tools will allow for any given toxic response a truly molecular<br />

assessment <strong>of</strong> the relevance <strong>of</strong> various animal models to one another and to<br />

man.<br />
