Core Tip |
Liver is the central organ for absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) of pharmacological drugs and molecules. Available in vitro and in vivo preclinical models deals with several limitations including xenogeneic barrier, lack of natural humanized liver architecture and functional responses. Bioengineered humanized livers developed in present study can overcome on such limitations. This humanized liver model system provides better platform which could be used more efficiently to screen the ADMET of several pipeline drugs and other pharmacological molecules. This approach could reduce the time and cost of the total drug screening experiments as compared to the animal models. It provides enhanced dose response relationship by using drug concentrations relative to human exposure. Ease of ex-vivo access of cellular and molecular responses in humanized liver model system during pharmacological screening also offers high-throughput studies to determine the cellular response networks and toxicity pathways. |
