Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the toxicological effects of various chemical substances and drugs on biological systems. Research investigates the mechanisms of toxicity, including oxidative stress, inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and apoptosis, across different organs such as the liver, kidneys, and nervous system. Studies also explore protective and therapeutic interventions against these toxic effects, as well as the potential health risks associated with environmental contaminants like microplastics and heavy metals.
