Popis: | Polymorphisms in G-protein-coupled receptors can alter drug affinity and/or activity. In addition, genetic differences in amino acid sequences can induce ligand-independent signaling, which in turn can lead to disease. With growing efforts in the field of pharmacogenomics, it is anticipated that polymorphism-induced alterations in drug and/or receptor function will be a focus of increasing concern during the course of future drug-development efforts. In this review, the spectrum of pharmacological consequences that result from polymorphisms in the cholecystokinin CCK2 receptor will be discussed, thereby illustrating emerging themes in pharmacogenomics. |
