Example text

Three general approaches may be employed to tackle this problem: the first is to treat immediate symptoms, as has already been done by Hurst et al. (9); the second would be to try to identify key players that give rise to DD pathology in most, if not all, DD cases; and the third would be to use case-specific diagnostics and personalize the therapy for each patient using the available treatment options. Regardless of the approach of choice, functional genomics methods can be useful tolls to achieve this aim, as they not only help to identify targets for intervention into the pathological processes but also provide clues on how the system will change following therapeutic intervention.

Using functional genomics in screening of potential drugs and prodrugs may therefore provide key insights into the action and effectiveness of candidate compounds, thereby accelerating drug discovery research in DD and making it more cost-effective. These aspects are important in any pharmacological research, but are absolutely crucial for 30 M. Sedic et al. orphan diseases, in which feasibility of drug discovery is often limited by the strict economic or experimental constraints. Functional genomics, with its ability to survey a wide spectrum of potential targets, may prove invaluable in this regard.
