Biological Context

Structured terms, selected from a drop-down menu, are used to identify the level of biological organization for each KE. More help

Cell term

The location/biological environment in which the event takes place.The biological context describes the location/biological environment in which the event takes place. For molecular/cellular events this would include the cellular context (if known), organ context, and species/life stage/sex for which the event is relevant. For tissue/organ events cellular context is not applicable. For individual/population events, the organ context is not applicable.

Key Event Components

The KE, as defined by a set structured ontology terms consisting of a biological process, object, and action with each term originating from one of 14 biological ontologies (Ives, et al., 2017; https://aopwiki.org/info_pages/2/info_linked_pages/7#List). Biological process describes dynamics of the underlying biological system (e.g., receptor signalling).Biological process describes dynamics of the underlying biological system (e.g., receptor signaling). The biological object is the subject of the perturbation (e.g., a specific biological receptor that is activated or inhibited). Action represents the direction of perturbation of this system (generally increased or decreased; e.g., ‘decreased’ in the case of a receptor that is inhibited to indicate a decrease in the signaling by that receptor). Note that when editing Event Components, clicking an existing Event Component from the Suggestions menu will autopopulate these fields, along with their source ID and description. To clear any fields before submitting the event component, use the 'Clear process,' 'Clear object,' or 'Clear action' buttons. If a desired term does not exist, a new term request may be made via Term Requests. Event components may not be edited; to edit an event component, remove the existing event component and create a new one using the terms that you wish to add.

Key Event Description

A description of the biological state being observed or measured, the biological compartment in which it is measured, and its general role in the biology should be provided. More help

How It Is Measured or Detected

A description of the type(s) of measurements that can be employed to evaluate the KE and the relative level of scientific confidence in those measurements.These can range from citation of specific validated test guidelines, citation of specific methods published in the peer reviewed literature, or outlines of a general protocol or approach (e.g., a protein may be measured by ELISA). Do not provide detailed protocols. More help

Domain of Applicability

Taxonomic: According to the evaluation of the empirical taxonomic domain of applicability (tDOA) of an adverse outcome pathway network for thyroid hormone system disruption (THSD) by Haigis et al., 2023, the level of confidence for a linkage between DUOX inhibition and reduced thyroid hormone (TH) levels was considered high for mammals (Amano et al., 2016, Cediel-Ulloa et al., 2022, Giannocco et al., 2021, Grasberger et al., 2012, Johnson et al., 2007, Mühlbauer et al., 2010, Pettigrew et al., 2012) and moderate for fish (Chopra et al., 2019, Giannocco et al., 2021, Giusti et al., 2020). This was supported by structural protein conservation analysis by Haigis et al., 2023. Structural protein conservation of mammalian, fish, amphibian, reptilian and avian DUOX was found compared to the human (Homo sapiens) protein target using the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Sequence Alignment to Predict Across Species Susceptibility (SeqAPASS v6.0; seqapass.epa.gov/seqapass/) tool, while acknowledging the potential existence of interspecies differences in conservation. No empirical evidence linking DUOX inhibition to THSD was found for amphibians, reptiles and birds.
