  • Title: Toxicogenomics--a new systems toxicology approach to understanding of gene-environment interactions.
    Author: Olden K.
    Journal: Ann N Y Acad Sci; 2006 Sep; 1076():703-6. PubMed ID: 17119247.
    Abstract:
    Toxicogenomics is a new interdisciplinary area of research being developed to monitor the expression of multiple genes, proteins, and metabolites simultaneously. It combines new technologies in genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics with traditional tools of pathology and toxicology to study biological response to drugs and other environmental xenobiotics. The biological response to environmental exposure is so complex and involves so many interactive factors that the use of a systems biology analytical approach is required. In my opinion, the development of the field of toxicogenomics will provide powerful and relatively inexpensive tools to identify biomarkers and to relate exposure and biological events during disease progression.
