Preface

Rapid advances in computer science, biology, chemistry, and other disciplines are enabling
powerful new computational tools and models for toxicology and pharmacology. These
computational tools hold tremendous promise for advancing applied and basic science,
from streamlining drug efficacy and safety testing to increasing the efficiency and effective-
ness of risk assessment for environmental chemicals. These approaches also offer the
potential to improve experimental design, reduce the overall number of experimental trials
needed, and decrease the number of animals used in experimentation.
Computational approaches are ideally suited to organize, process, and analyze the vast
libraries and databases of scientific information and to simulate complex biological phe-
nomena. For instance, they allow researchers to (1) investigate toxicological and pharma-
cological phenomena across a wide range of scales of biological organization
(molecular $ cellular $ organism), (2) incorporate and analyze multiple biochemical
and biological interactions, (3) simulate biological processes and generate hypotheses
based on model predictions, which can be tested via targeted experimentation in vitro or
in vivo, (4) explore the consequences of inter- and intra-species differences and population
variability on the toxicology and pharmacology, and (5) extrapolate biological responses
across individuals, species, and a range of dose levels.
Despite the exceptional promise of computational approaches, there are presently very
few resources that focus on providing guidance on the development and practice of these
tools to solve problems and perform analyses in this area. This volume was conceived as
part of the Methods in Molecular Biology series to meet this need and to provide both
biomedical and quantitative scientists with essential background, context, examples, useful
tips, and an overview of current developments in the field. To this end, we present a
collection of practical techniques and software in computational toxicology, illustrated with
relevant examples drawn principally from the fields of environmental and pharmaceutical
sciences. These computational techniques can be used to analyze and simulate a myriad of
multi-scale biochemical and biological phenomena occurring in humans and other animals
following exposure to environmental toxicants or dosing with drugs.
This book (the first in a two-volume set) is organized into four parts each covering a
methodology or topic, subdivided into chapters that provide background, theory, and
illustrative examples. Each part is generally self-contained, allowing the reader to start with
any part, although some knowledge of concepts from other parts may be assumed. Part I
introduces the field of computational toxicology and its current or potential applications.
Part II outlines the principal elements of mathematical and computational modeling, and
accepted best practices and useful guidelines. Part III discusses the use of computational
techniques and databases to predict chemical properties and toxicity, as well as the use of
molecular dynamics. Part IV delineates the elements and approaches to pharmacokinetic
and pharmacodynamic modeling, including non-compartmental and compartmental mod-
eling, modeling of absorption, prediction of pharmacokinetic parameters, physiologically
based pharmacokinetic modeling, and mechanism-based pharmacodynamic modeling;
chemical mixture and population effects, as well as interspecies extrapolation, are also
described and illustrated.

vi Preface

Although a complete picture of toxicological risk often involves an analysis of environ-

mental transport, we believe that this expansive topic is beyond the scope of this volume,
and it will not be covered here; overviews of computational techniques in this area are
contained in a variety of excellent references [1–4].
Computational techniques are increasingly allowing scientists to gain new insights into
toxicological phenomena, integrate (and interpret) the results from a wide variety of
experiments, and develop more rigorous and quantitative means of assessing chemical
safety and toxicity. Moreover, these techniques can provide valuable insights before initiat-
ing expensive laboratory experiments and into phenomena not easily amenable to experi-
mental analysis, e.g., detection of highly reactive, transient, or trace-level species in
biological milieu. We believe that the unique collection of explanatory material, software,
and illustrative examples in Computational Toxicology will allow motivated readers to
participate in this exciting field and undertake a diversity of realistic problems of interest.
We would like to express our sincere thanks to our authors whose enthusiasm and
diverse contributions have made this project possible.

What is Computational Toxicology?

Brad Reisfeld and Arthur N. Mayeno

Abstract
Computational toxicology is a vibrant and rapidly developing discipline that integrates information and
data from a variety of sources to develop mathematical and computer-based models to better understand
and predict adverse health effects caused by chemicals, such as environmental pollutants and pharmaceu-
ticals. Encompassing medicine, biology, biochemistry, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, engi-
neering, and other fields, computational toxicology investigates the interactions of chemical agents and
biological organisms across many scales (e.g., population, individual, cellular, and molecular). This multi-
disciplinary field has applications ranging from hazard and risk prioritization of chemicals to safety screening
of drug metabolites, and has active participation and growth from many organizations, including govern-
ment agencies, not-for-profit organizations, private industry, and universities.

Key words: Computational toxicology, Computational chemistry, Computational biology, Systems

biology, Risk assessment, Safety assessment

1. Introduction

There are over 80,000 chemicals in common use worldwide, and

hundreds of new chemicals and chemical mixtures are introduced
into commerce each year. Because chemical safety has traditionally
been assessed using expensive and time-consuming animal-based
toxicity tests, only a small fraction of these chemicals have been
adequately assessed for potential risk.
Aside from these environmentally relevant chemicals, drugs are
another class of chemicals for which toxicity testing is crucial. For
new drugs, toxicity is still the cause of a significant number of
candidate failures during later development stages. In the pharma-
ceutical industry, toxicity assessment is hampered by the large
amounts of compound required for the in vivo studies, lack of
reliable high-throughput in vitro assays, and inability of in vitro
and animal models to correctly predict some human toxicities.

For both environmental pollutants and drugs, there is a clear

need for alternative approaches to traditional toxicity testing to help
predict the potential for toxicity and prioritize testing in light of the
limited resources. One such approach is computational toxicology.

2. What is
Computational
Toxicology?
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines Compu-
tational Toxicology as “the application of mathematical and com-
puter models to predict adverse effects and to better understand the
single or multiple mechanisms through which a given chemical
induces harm.”
In a larger context, computational toxicology is an emerging
multidisciplinary field that combines knowledge of toxicity path-
ways with relevant chemical and biological data to inform the
development, verification, and testing of multi-scale computer-
based models that are used to gain insights into the mechanisms
through which a given chemical induces harm. Computational
toxicology also seeks to manage and detect patterns and interac-
tions in large biological and chemical data sets by taking advantage
of high-information-content data, novel biostatistical methods, and
computational power to analyze these data.

3. What Are Some

Application Areas
for Computational
Toxicology? Some of the principal application areas for computational toxicology
are (1) hazard and risk prioritization of chemicals, (2) uncovering
mechanistic information that is valuable in tailoring testing pro-
grams for each chemical, (3) safety screenings of food additives and
food contact substances, (4) supporting more sophisticated
approaches to aggregate and cumulative risk assessment, (5) estimat-
ing the extent of variability in response in the human population, (6)
pharmaceutical lead selection in drug development, (7) safety
screening and qualification of pharmaceutical contaminants and
degradation products, and (8) safety screening of drug metabolites.

4. What Are
the Major Fields
Comprising
Computational Computational toxicology is highly interdisciplinary. Researchers in
Toxicology? the field have backgrounds and training in toxicology, biochemistry,
chemistry, environmental sciences, mathematics, statistics, medicine,
engineering, biology, computer science, and many other disciplines.
 1 What is Computational Toxicology? 5

In addition, the development of models in computational

toxicology has been supported by the development of numerous
“-omics” technologies, which have evolved into a number of scien-
tific disciplines, including genomics, proteomics, metabolomics,
transcriptomics, glycomics, and lipomics.

5. Who Uses
Computational
Toxicology?
A broad spectrum of international organizations are involved in the
development, application, and dissemination of knowledge, tools,
and data in computational toxicology. These include
l Government agencies in
 The USA (EPA, Centers for Disease Control, Food and
Drug Administration, National Institutes of Health,
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry).
 Europe (European Chemicals Agency, Institute for Health
and Consumer Protection).
 Canada (Health Canada, National Centre for Occupational
Health and Safety Information).
 Japan (National Institute of Health Sciences of Japan).
l The USA state agencies.
l Not-for-profit organizations.
l National laboratories.
l Nongovernment organizations.
l Military laboratories; private industry.
l Universities.

6. What Are Some

Current Areas
of Research
in Computational This volume covers a diverse range of applications for computa-
Toxicology? tional toxicology. This trend is also reflected by recent publications
in the scientific literature. Some of the topics of papers published
recently in the area of computational toxicology include
l Computational methods for evaluating genetic toxicology.
l Structure-based predictive toxicology.
l Informatics and machine learning in computational toxicology.
l Estimating toxicity-related biological pathways.
l Computational approaches to assessing human genetic
susceptibility.
6 B. Reisfeld and A.N. Mayeno

l Assessing activity profiles of chemicals evaluated across bio-

chemical targets.
l Pharmacokinetic modeling for nanoparticles.
l Quantitative structure–activity relationships in toxicity predic-
tion.
l In silico prediction of carcinogenic potency.
l Virtual tissues in toxicology.
l Public databases supporting computational toxicology.
l Regulatory use of computational toxicology tools and data-
bases.
l Computational approaches to assess the impact of environmen-
tal chemicals on key transcription regulators.
l Molecular modeling for screening environmental chemicals for

7. What Are Likely

Future Directions
in Computational
Toxicology? Progress in computational toxicology is expected to facilitate the
transformative shift in toxicology called for by the US National
Research Council in the recent report entitled “Toxicity Testing
in the 21st Century: A Vision and a Strategy.” Specifically, the
following directions are among those that will be critical in enabling
this shift:
l Broadening the usage of high-throughput screening methods
to evaluate the toxicity for the backlog of thousands of indus-
trial chemicals in the environment.
l Informing computational models through the continued and
expanded use of “-omics” technologies.
l Acquiring new biological data at therapeutic or physiologically
relevant exposure levels for more realistic computational
endpoints.
l Predicting adverse outcomes of environmental chemical and
drug exposure in specific human populations.
l Establishing curated and widely accessible databases that
include both chemical and biological information.
l Creating models for characterizing gene–environment
interactions.
 1 What is Computational Toxicology? 7

l Developing approaches to predict cellular responses and bio-

logically based dose–response.
l Utilizing toxicogenomics to illuminate mechanisms and bridge
genotoxicity and carcinogenicity.
l Incorporating rigorous uncertainty estimates in models and
simulations.
l Implementing strategies for utilizing animals more efficiently
and effectively in bioassays designed to answer specific
questions.
l Generating models to assess the effects of mixtures of chemicals
by employing system-level approaches that encompass the
underlying biological pathways.
l Developing virtual tissues for toxicological investigations.

Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of computational models that describe various aspects of the source-to-health
effect continuum. Fate and transport models describe the release, transportation, and transformation of
chemicals from sources of emission throughout the general environment. Exposure models integrate the
microenvironmental concentrations with the amount of time an individual spends in these microenviron-
ments to estimate the intensity, frequency, and duration of contact with environmental chemicals. Physio-
logically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models incorporate mechanistic biological information to predict
chemical-specific absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Values of parameters in PBPK models
can be measured in vitro, in vivo, or estimated using computational molecular modeling. Computational
modeling is also used to predict the respiratory tract dosimetry of inhaled gases and particulates [computa-
tional fluid dynamics (CFD) models], to describe the normal and xenobiotic-perturbed behaviors of
signaling pathways, and to analyze the growth kinetics of preneoplastic lesions and predict tumor incidence
(clonal growth models).

Key words: Computational toxicology, Source-to-effect continuum, Fate and transport, Dosimetry,
Signaling pathway, Physiologically based pharmacokinetic model, Biologically based dose response
model, Clonal growth model, Virtual tissue

1. Overview

Computational toxicology involves a variety of computational

tools including databases, statistical analysis packages, and predic-
tive models. In this chapter, we focus on computational models
that describe various aspects of the source-to-health effect contin-
uum (Fig. 1). Literature on the application of computational
models across the continuum has been expanding rapidly in recent
years. Using the Web of Science portal, we conducted a

bibliometric analysis of publications that appeared between 1970

and 2009. Using the search structure [TS ¼ (computational
OR “in silico” OR predictive OR model* OR virtual) AND TS
¼ (toxicology) AND TS ¼ (environment*)] (TS: Topic), a total
of 397 articles were found. Adding “NOT pharmaceutic*” to the
search structure above, found 371 articles, indicating only a
small fraction of the 397 deal with aspects of drug development.
A PubMed search (Feb 17, 2011) on “physiologically based phar-
macokinetic (PBPK) modeling” found 769 articles, indicating
that our search, which focused on computational modeling spe-
cifically in environmental toxicology, was quite restrictive.
Literature searches using specific terminology were performed to
understand the publication frequency of some of the most common
types of modeling used in computational toxicology, including fate
and transport, exposure, PBPK, computational fluid dynamic (CFD),
signaling pathway, biologically based dose–response (BBDR), and
clonal growth modeling. Searches were restricted to original scientific
publications only (i.e., reviews were excluded) and fields of science
were restricted (e.g., “NOT eco*”) in order to focus on applications
relevant to human health effects. A yearly breakdown showing publi-
cation frequency over time is presented in Fig. 2. The data show a
rapid increase in publication frequency for many of the modeling
types beginning in the early 1990s and that PBPK, fate and transport
and signaling pathways are the most common. BBDR and clonal
growth modeling have received considerably less attention.

2. Computational
Models Along the
Source-to-Health
Effect Continuum Fate and transport models describe the release, transportation, and
transformation of chemicals from sources of emission throughout
2.1. Fate and Transport the general environment. Fate addresses persistence, dissipation,
and loss of chemical mass along the migration pathway; and trans-
port addresses mobility of a chemical along the migration pathway
(1). Based on their complexity, models of fate and transport can be
used for either “screening-level” or “higher-tiered” applications
(2). Screening-level models often use default input parameters
that tend to over-predict exposures (the preferred default approach
used in the absence of data). These models are suitable for obtain-
ing a first approximation or to screen out exposures that are not
likely to be of concern (3). Screening-level models have limited
spatial and temporal scope. Higher-tiered models are needed when
analyses require greater temporal and spatial resolution, but much
more information is required, such as site-specific data.
The processes that can be described in fate and transport models
include advection, dispersion, diffusion, equilibrium partitioning
between solid and fluid, biodegradation, and phase separation of
immiscible liquids (1). In general, fate and transport models require
information on physicochemical properties; mechanisms of release
