Pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics: development, science, and translation.

Abstract excerpt

Pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics involve the study of the role of inheritance in individual variation in drug response, a phenotype that varies from potentially life-threatening adverse drug reactions to equally serious lack of therapeutic efficacy. This discipline evolved from the convergence of rapid advances in molecular pharmacology and genomics. Originally, pharmacogenetic studies focused on monogenic...
