Abstract: The use of gene expression data in predictive and mechanistic toxicology is hindered by a lack of information on the relationships between transcriptional events and physiological and pathological changes. We discuss the analysis of these relationships using the rodent uterotrophic response as a model experimental system for estrogen-induced uterine growth.
