RFA: Organotypic Culture Models for Predictive Toxicology Center (2013) RFA Text | Recipients Lists
Research Category: Chemical Safety for Sustainability
Objective:
The Predictive Toxicology Center for Assessment of AOPs of Engineered Nanomaterials is developing innovative organotypic culture models (OCMs) to evaluate potential cellular and organ toxicity from exposure to metal-based Engineered Nanomaterials within an adverse outcome pathway model. The Center has produced OCMs for four target organs: lung, kidney, liver, and testis. The Center’s work on improving the understanding of the normal cell signaling pathways in OCM systems is putting the results of in vitro science into the context of existing in vivo data. By understanding how in vitro responses change over time under normal conditions, we are better able to understand the biological meaning behind toxicant perturbations. The Center observed life stage specific differences in susceptibility to cadmium in both the tests and the lung cultures. Their work already is impacting how in vitro data are incorporated into public health decisions. The Center is conducting the following projects:
Project 1: Airway Epithelium Organotypic Culture as a Platform for Adverse Outcomes Pathway Assessment of Engineered Nanomaterials
Project 2: Organotypic Model of Human Kidney as a Platform for Adverse Outcomes Pathway Assessment of Engineered Nanomaterials
Project 3: Organotypic Models of Mammalian Liver as a Platform for Adverse Outcomes Pathway Assessment of Engineered Nanomaterials
Project 4: Organotypic Model of Testis as a Platform for Adverse Outcomes Pathway Assessment of Engineered Nanomaterials
Project 5: Integrating Liver, Kidney and Testis Nanomaterial Toxicity using the Adverse Outcome Pathway Approach
Progress Summary:
The progress on the five Center projects are reported in separate progress reports. See the reports for R835738C001 through R835738C005. The progress for the Administrative Core Unit is reported here.
The Administrative Core Unit works in close collaboration with investigators of all the Center’s projects to move forward collectively on Center objectives. The Administrative Core Unit continues to facilitate meeting coordination and collaborations in addition to a wide array of Center activities. The Administrative Core Unit is housed at the Institute for Risk Analysis and Risk Communication (IRARC), in the University of Washington’s Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences (DEOHS).
Center Oversight, Coordination and Integration
The Administrative Core Unit continues to provide administrative support for Center investigators. Examples include but are not limited to fiscal management and budget reporting, purchasing and budget management, reporting progress to sponsors and participating in conferences and webinars.
Following the Administrative Core’s comprehensive Quality Management Plan (QMP), the Center continues to integrate quality management practices for activities in the various Center laboratories. In doing so, the Center has established a number of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), protocols and policies to standardize laboratory work. The Administrative Core ensures that the various project investigators remain current on
protocols, certifications, and training. Within the QMP, the Quality Assurance Project Plans continue to generate the high quality data needed to accomplish Center objectives. Quality management is thereby practiced at many levels in the Center, namely in the community and in the laboratory. SOPs support quality management and assurance and individual roles and responsibilities.
Tracking Progress Toward Center Outcomes
Central elements of tracking progress toward Center outcomes include preparation of annual and special reports, interaction of the Internal Steering Committee, engagement of the External Advisory Committee, involvement in the Virtual Tissue Models weekly meetings, and collaboration with Nortis Inc.
Center Investigator Meetings
To share research updates and to plan future work, the Center facilitates monthly investigator meetings. Investigators share research updates through formal presentations and in-depth discussions regarding the five projects as well as related Center activities and interactions. Members of the Internal Steering Committee, staff, and students participate in these monthly meetings. Members of the Internal Steering Committee are continuing to participate in a series of focused program evaluation and planning meetings to identify Center needs and opportunities for collaborations. These meetings have helped investigators to work towards Center deliverables and regular interactions among investigators and encourage further communication within the Center. These meetings are strategic, project-oriented, and geared towards setting interim research goals and targets.
Science Advisory Committee Meeting
The Science Advisory Committee (SAC) boasts a balance of basic, clinical, and applied researchers in academia and industry contexts with Dr. Denny Liggitt as the chair. On December 1, 2015, the Center hosted an initial SAC meeting in the form of a conference call to introduce the Center’s projects, investigators and SAC members. The introductory conference call covered the goals of the Center, an overview of the research projects and feedback regarding the type of interactions SAC members wanted in preparation for the face-to-face meeting the following month. On January 28-29, 2016, the Center hosted the first in-person SAC meeting to evaluate Center activities and progress toward objectives. This was a highly successful meeting and energized Center investigators. This interaction with SAC members provided Center investigators an important platform for gaining feedback and insight into current and future Center research. SAC members were very responsive and gave highly relevant and insightful responses to our updates. This feedback will not only impact current Center research, but also has stimulated discussions of future research goals.
Interactions with EPA
USEPA-NHEERL-University of Washington PTC Cooperative Meeting was held in August 2016. Key objectives of the meeting were: (1) learn about University of Washington Predictive Toxicology Center research activities and capabilities; (2) introduce NHEERL Integrated Systems Toxicology Divsion research activities and capabilities in the areas of AOP development, complex experimental models, and nanomaterial/metals toxicology; and (3) identify opportunities for collaboration between the EPA Integrated Systems Toxicology Division and University of Washington Predictive Toxicology Center. The following key topics were discussed during the meeting:
- Linking computational strengths with experimental models across systems to provide predictive tools
- Implications of normal and perturbed biological responses in disease models–predicting departure from normal processes that leads to adverse phenotypes
- AOP-based models; kinetic and dynamic information required to support quantitative approaches
- Complexities of predictive toxicology
- Goals for in vitro models
- Capturing complexity of biological context, signaling
- Contributions of systems biology for predictive toxicology
In July of 2015, the Center held a conference call with William Boyes from EPA to discuss research contributions, the testing of nanomaterials and compounds that EPA would like the Center to evaluate. The conference call initiated the Center’s cooperative agreement with EPA to discuss various systems, models, and a plan to share the Center’s common endpoints across all of the projects. William Boyes and Elaine Cohen Hubal also joined the initial SAC conference call December 2015 to further discuss the collaboration between the Center and EPA. Elaine Faustman also had a meeting with William Boyes and Elaine Cohen Hubal after the in-person SAC meeting January 2016 to discuss the cooperative agreement and steps to take moving forward.
At the face to face SAC meeting in January Dr. William Boyes was able to tour the Respiratory Biology Facility and specifically to meet with Dr. William Altemeier and his students and staff. Dr. Elaine Cohen-Hubal joined Dr. Faustman and her staff and discussed the need to include exposure considerations in to the grant structure and into the AOP pathway considerations. They also discussed the child health safety project that Ms. Marissa Smith is working on. In October of 2015, the Center hosted a poster session event with attendees from EPA Region 10, EPA Office of Science Coordination and Policy, Nortis Inc., as well as Center investigators, staff and students. Attendees from EPA included Dr. Bruce Duncan from Region 10, Ms. Karen Chu who reports to the Office of Research and Development Sustainable and Healthy Communities. This poster session served as an informal gathering for discussion on current, relevant research as well as an update on the Center’s activities.
The Center’s EPA Project Officer, Dr. Barbara Klieforth, also has joined in over the phone as an observing participant on our initial SAC phone call in December and our full SAC meeting in January.
Communication and Public Outreach
A critical function of the Administrative Core is to facilitate communication about Center research to the UW community and beyond. The Center has implemented a variety of efforts to encourage data sharing and translation across the different projects, throughout the scientific community and to the general public. The Center has worked closely with the DEOHS communications and web development team on announcing
the center through press releases as well as planning the design of the Center website. The Center’s website was published on January 4, 2016.
Educational Opportunities for Technology Transfer
Researchers in the Center engage in substantive educational, training and other enrichment activities. These activities use the work of the Center as a learning tool and are instrumental in equipping future public health researchers and practitioners for work in new in vitro methods and in computational toxicology. A hallmark of the Center is its emphasis on cultivating and training the Center’s mentored fellows, postdocs, undergraduate and graduate students, who collaborate on projects and related training grants.
Center Director Dr. Faustman presented Center research at a number of venues across the country, as well as internationally, enhancing the visibility of the Center. These opportunities to share Center accomplishments are a key feature of the Center’s administrative and outreach efforts. Dr. Faustman was directly involved in the planning of the US EPA’s Science to Achieve Results (STAR) Organotypic Culture Models for Predictive Toxicology Centers Satellite Meeting titled, “3-D or note 3-D: That is the [predictive toxicology] question...” at the 2016 Society of Toxicology Annual Meeting. Currently she is working with one of three co-directors of 10th World Congress of Alternative and Animal Use that will take place in Seattle, WA August 20-24, 2017. In that capacity, she is highlighting both USEPA and the PTC researchers in this international venue.
Future Activities:
The Administrative Core Unit will continue to work with Center directors and investigators to support the mission and specific aims of the Center. Continued interactions with EPA Region 10 as well as future meetings with William Boyes and Elaine Cohen Hubal are planned for the subsequent reporting period. A second annual Science Advisory Committee Meeting is planned for the next funding period.
