What Are the Applications of Proteomics in Toxicology?
Proteomics has several applications in toxicology, including:
Drug Development: Identifying protein targets and pathways affected by drug candidates to assess their safety. Environmental Toxicology: Studying the impact of pollutants on wildlife and ecosystems by analyzing protein changes. Clinical Toxicology: Identifying protein biomarkers for diagnosing and monitoring exposure to toxins in humans. Mechanistic Toxicology: Understanding the molecular mechanisms by which toxins exert their effects.
