The fallacy of racial pharmacogenomics.

Brazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologicas - 1 Apr 2011

Pena S D J

Abstract excerpt

Personalized pharmacogenomics aims to use individual genotypes to direct medical treatment. Unfortunately, the loci relevant for the pharmacokinetics and especially the pharmacodynamics of most drugs are still unknown. Moreover, we still do not understand the role that individual genotypes play in modulating the pathogenesis, the clinical course and the susceptibility to drugs of human diseases which, although...
