Human neuronal cells: possibilities in drug safety testing

Drug Target Review

These cells demonstrate considerable promise for uncovering drug-induced perturbations to neuronal function such as seizure, and their use extends further to sedation, anti-epileptic drug discovery and modelling of neurological diseases. Another area in need of attention is central nervous system (CNS)-safety testing.
