Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on toxicologic pathology, encompassing the study of adverse effects of chemical, physical, and biological agents on living organisms. It covers research on carcinogenicity assessment, including the use of transgenic mouse models and rodent bioassays, as well as the interpretation of histopathological findings. The journal also addresses methodologies in toxicologic pathology, such as immunohistochemistry and digital pathology, and their application in nonclinical drug development and safety evaluation. Investigations into specific organ toxicities, like those in the placenta, corpus luteum, and testes, are also featured.
