Abstract

The constantly growing volume of available data on cardiovascular disorders will require an organized interpretation of variations in DNA and mRNA as well as proteins, both on the individual and the population levels. A five-step strategy can be followed when trying to identify genes and gene products involved in differential responses to cardiovascular drugs (Siest et al. 2007): Pharmacokinetic-related genes and phenotypes Pharmacodynamic targets, genes, and products Cardiovascular diseases and risks depending on specific or large metabolic cycles Physiological variations of previously identified genes and proteins Environmental influences on them
