This study proposes hiPSCs derived SC-islet differentiation as model to study development impact of EDCs on human pancreatic endocrine cell development and maturation. Using a cocktail of BPA, BPS and trans-nonachlor provided comparable results with in vivo studies of fetus exposure to BPA. Congratulations June, Thomas and Lucas!
by Thomas: This week’s journal club focuses on a study from Nature Communications (2025) showing that local transplantation of iPSC-derived neural progenitor cells (NPCs) improves brain repair and long-term functional recovery in stroke-injured mice.
by Thomas Aga Legøy In traditional toxicology, the focus has been on evaluating the adverse effects of individual chemicals and establishing safe exposure levels. However, there is a growing recognition that real-world exposures involve complex mixtures of chemicals, which may…
by Thomas Aga Legøy Today, Nature published a new feature examining the most cited papers of the twenty-first century (Pearson et al., 2025). The most cited paper is naturally connected to the neural-inspired algorithms that laid the foundation for deep…
by Thomas Aga Legøy Bisphenol S (BPS) is extensively utilized in various commercial and manufacturing products, including cleaning detergents, plating solvents, phenolic resins, and thermal paper. Previous studies have demonstrated that BPS is closely associated with acute cytotoxicity, neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity,…
