Drug Designing and Biomarkers

Track 8:  Drug Designing and Biomarkers

A biomarker is an attribute which will be studied as an indicator of pathogenic and biological operation alongside pharmacological retort to a therapeutic involvement. They indicate either normal or diseased activity within the body. Biomarkers are specific molecules, genes, gene products, hormones, cells or enzymes.

Drug Designing is an ingenious process to seek out new medication centered on the knowledge of biological target. Drug is most ordinarily a little molecule that inhibits or activates the function of a biomolecule, which successively outcomes during a therapeutic benefit to the patient. Drug design commonly but not essentially relies on computational techniques. This sort of modelling is usually mentioned to as computer-aided drug design.
