Biochemical assays and deep cyclic inhibition in cancer treatment

Drug Target Review

Molecular-level biochemical assays like transcriptomics, genomics and proteomics have emerged as valuable tools for identifying potential targets in cancer treatment through deep cyclic inhibition (DCI). Importantly, transcriptomics information shows that certain aspects of a disease change the gene expression profile.

Vitamin A and its role in psychiatric and other disorders

Drug Target Review

Our polygenic score will enable the application of these treatments to people that specifically need it through precision medicine by identifying the individual at high genetic risk of low circulating levels of the vitamin. The answer is no because there are both genetic and dietary (environmental) causes for low vitamin A.

Scientific workflow for hypothesis testing in drug discovery: Part 1

Drug Target Review

Without this information, the interpretation of the dataset may be speculative or lead to inaccurate conclusions. In cases where control or treatment groups show large variability, this could reflect true biological responses to a treatment, and removing such data could reduce the accuracy of the analysis.
