Cytokine pharmacogenetics

Cytokine
J R Maxwell, A G Wilson

Abstract

Genetic variation plays a significant role in the normal functioning of the immune system, and also in the interaction between many common drugs and cellular pathways. With a growing number of cytokine-based therapies now in mainstream clinical use, the prospect of targeting these agents to the individuals likely to benefit from them most is an appealing one. This review outlines the potential clinical impact of cytokine pharmacogenetics in targeting these therapies to individuals with favourable genetic profiles. The use of such approaches may have important pharmacoeconomic benefits and lead to improved therapeutic profiles for these treatments.

CREs: Gene & Cell Therapy

Gene and cell therapy advances have shown promising outcomes for several diseases. The role of cis-regulatory elements (CREs) is crucial in the design of gene therapy vectors. Here is the latest research on CREs in gene and cell therapy.
