| 摘要 |
Described herein is a network biology approach useful for the identification of multiple therapeutic targets, which can be targeted simultaneously using an agent (or a plurality of agents) to modulate cellular phenotypes, or in combination with pharmaceutical compounds to improve drug sensitivity and/or reduce drug doses to maintain efficacy while minimizing side effects. The preferred approach disclosed herein relies on first identifying the mediators of a condition of interest, and second, selecting gene combinations that are in competing/parallel pathways as targets for combination therapy. |
