What Are Some Challenges in Identifying Drug Targets?
Identifying drug targets comes with several challenges, including:
Complexity of diseases: Many diseases are multifactorial, involving multiple genes and pathways. Genetic variability: Differences in genetic makeup among individuals can affect the efficacy of drugs targeting specific molecules. Data quality: Inaccurate or incomplete data can lead to erroneous conclusions. Ethical considerations: Ensuring that data collection and usage adhere to ethical standards.
