Pharmacogenomics and pharmacoproteomics in the evaluation and management of short stature

Abstract: It has long been recognized that growth failure encompasses a diverse spectrum of underlying pathophysiological processes, a characteristic that has significantly impacted both the diagnosis and management of growth disorders. This problem is exacerbated by inherent difficulty in distinguishing the borders between the 'normal range' for stature and defined abnormal growth. Evaluation of GH secretion has proven problematic, both diagnostically and prognostically, except in cases of unequivocal GH deficiency. Me… Show more

“…It will require a large-scale, prospective, wellcontrolled study, with appropriate assessment of proteomic and genomic markers of GH action, as well as auxological data, to settle this issue. Nevertheless, this study served to open the door to the potential importance of genomic and proteomic biomarkers as indicators and predictors of GH responsiveness [39]. Another study, conducted by Jorge and colleagues, is a good example of a direct relation between genetic variability and adult height after long-term treatment with hGH, since there are only few data in literature about long-term effects of drugs.…”

“…A main focus has been exploring the technology to study complex multigenetic disease, to predict drug response, to individualize treatment and to discriminate between healthy and diseased individual [22][23][24]. We also had strongly interested in the proteomics approach for the toxicological-and pharmacological evaluation.…”

“…Quando um dos pais é baixo, deve-se admitir a possibilidade da presença de doença hereditária de caráter dominante. É possível que, no futuro, a disponibilidade de estudos moleculares possa permitir o reconhecimento de alterações gênicas que isoladamente ou em conjunto determinem a perda estatural (7). Com isso, pacientes que hoje são classificados como portadores de BEI passarão a ter o diagnóstico etiológico conhecido.…”
