Article Synopsis
  • Refining assumptions about the fraction absorbed (Fabs) can enhance the performance of pharmacokinetic models that use in vitro-to-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) methods for predicting oral bioavailability (Fbio) of chemicals.
  • In this study, over 400 non-pharmaceuticals were tested for apparent permeability (Papp) using the Caco-2 cell line, leading to the development of a random forest quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model which improved predictions of human bioavailability compared to rat data.
  • The findings were integrated into a high throughput toxicokinetics (HTTK) framework to estimate equivalent doses for bioactivity based on in vitro data, resulting in only minor changes to exposure and bioactivity

New approach methodologies (NAMs) aim to accelerate the pace of chemical risk assessment while simultaneously reducing cost and dependency on animal studies. High Throughput Transcriptomics (HTTr) is an emerging NAM in the field of chemical hazard evaluation for establishing in vitro points-of-departure and providing mechanistic insight. In the current study, 1201 test chemicals were screened for bioactivity at eight concentrations using a 24-h exposure duration in the human- derived U-2 OS osteosarcoma cell line with HTTr.
