Abstract
Microarrays are a powerful tool has multiple applications both in clinical and cellular and molecular biology arenas. Early assessment of the probable biological importance of drug targets, pharmacogenomics, toxicogenomics and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). A list of new drug candidates along with proposed targets for intervention is described. Recent advances in the knowledge of microarrays analysis of organisms and the availability of the genomics sequences provide a wide range of novel targets for drug design. This review gives different process of microarray technologies; methods for comparative gene expression study, applications of microarrays in medicine and pharmacogenomics and current drug targets in research, which are relevant to common diseases as they relate to clinical and future perspectives.

Impact of brain tissue binding and plasma protein binding of drugs in DMPK
The impression of brain tissue binding (BTB) or plasma protein binding (PPB) in Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics is critical to understanding the distribution, efficacy, and potential toxicity of drugs that target the central nervous system (CNS). BTB and high PPB influence the distribution of drugs in the body and their ...read more
Interaction between drugs and endocrine diseases
The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy accelerated studies and our understanding on the interaction between pharmacological therapies and endocrine diseases. Drugs can precipitate endocrine via different mechanisms, including direct alteration of hormone production and secretion, dysregulation of hormonal axis, effects on hormonal transport, receptor-binding, and cellular signalling. Common drug-induced ...read more
Metabolism-Mediated Xenobiotic Toxicity
Considering the potent modulation of biotransformation enzyme expression and activities by various therapeutic drugs and environmental chemicals, and the commonly combined exposure of humans to both drugs and the ever increasing environmental pollutants simultaneously, knowledge about the combined toxic effects by modulating biotransformation enzymes, such as P450s, UDP- glucuronosyltransferases, and ...read more
Safety evaluation of vaccine combination
Vaccine combination safety evaluation is a critical field within immunology and public health that focuses on assessing the safety and efficacy of combining different vaccines to maximize protection against various diseases while minimizing potential adverse effects. This process is significant because it ensures that vaccines can be administered together without ...read more
