Large-scale analysis of human gene expression variability associates highly variable drug targets with lower drug effectiveness and safety.

Eyal Simonovsky | Ronen Schuster | Esti Yeger-Lotem
Bioinformatics (Oxford, England) | 2019

The effectiveness of drugs tends to vary between patients. One of the well-known reasons for this phenomenon is genetic polymorphisms in drug target genes among patients. Here, we propose that differences in expression levels of drug target genes across individuals can also contribute to this phenomenon.

PharmGKB (tool)

RRID:SCR_002689

Database and central repository for genetic, genomic, molecular and cellular phenotype data and clinical information about people who have participated in pharmacogenomics research studies. The data includes, but is not limited to, clinical and basic pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenomic research in the cardiovascular, pulmonary, cancer, pathways, metabolic and transporter domains. PharmGKB welcomes submissions of primary data from all research into genes and genetic variation and their effects on drug and disease phenotypes. PharmGKB collects, encodes, and disseminates knowledge about the impact of human genetic variations on drug response. They curate primary genotype and phenotype data, annotate gene variants and gene-drug-disease relationships via literature review, and summarize important PGx genes and drug pathways. PharmGKB is part of the NIH Pharmacogenomics Research Network (PGRN), a nationwide collaborative research consortium. Its aim is to aid researchers in understanding how genetic variation among individuals contributes to differences in reactions to drugs. A selected subset of data from PharmGKB is accessible via a SOAP interface. Downloaded data is available for individual research purposes only. Drugs with pharmacogenomic information in the context of FDA-approved drug labels are cataloged and drugs with mounting pharmacogenomic evidence are listed.
