Why early safety assessment needs a new approach
Animal models and simple assays often miss human-specific risk.
New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) combine human-relevant biology with scalable in vitro tools to enable earlier, more predictive safety insight.

TRPV3 is a temperature-sensitive, ligand-gated ion channel known for its role in warmth perception.
It can be activated by heat (~ 38หC) or by 2-APB, and we have explored both activation modes using APC with temp control.
