Drug effects during development and carcinogenicity

  • Chapter
Veterinary Pharmacology and Toxicology

Abstract

Animals in early developmental stages differ substantially from their mature counterparts in susceptibility to the adverse effects of xenobioticsIn the response to some agents that require biotransformation for activity, developĀ­ing animals can be more resistant than adults because of undeveloped xenobiotic biotransformation enzyme systemsMore often, developing animals are more sensitive to adverse effects because of one or more of several characteristics, including undeveloped xenobiotic detoxification enzyme systems, vulnerability of replicating cells to injury, susceptibility of regulatory systems to modulation and susceptibility of systems concerned with differentiated function.
