Trending Advancements in Technologies Pertinent to Therapeutical Pharmacodynamics
Abstract
It is omniscient that pharmacodynamics of a drug is understood as its effect on body by interacting with the structure of targets to either activate or inhibit their function/action. Based on the activity of the drug to the target binding site they have been classified into different types. Physiological, cellular, molecular, biochemical, and toxicological effects individually have a significant role in drug’s effect and response. The mechanism of action, dosage and its response, therapeutic index are some of the noteworthy parameters to be considered in drug pharmacodynamics. This chapter comprehends the above-mentioned concepts, their importance in pharmacodynamics of drug, and the impact of recently developed methods like genome-wide or transcriptome-wide sequencing, chronopharmacodynamics, systems biology, pharmacometabolomics, etc., in different stages of drug discovery process, and how the digitization of therapeutics and healthcare direct the path to personalized medicine. The integration of bioinformatics, systems biology, and big data related approaches like ML & AI with the pharmacological (PK/PD) study highly benefits the patients’ therapeutics.
