Pharmacogenomic implications of variants of monoaminergic-related genes in geriatric psychiatry.
Pharmacogenomics. 2010 Sep;11(9):1305-30
Authors: Shiroma PR, Geda YE, Mrazek DA
Response to psychiatric medications in later life is highly heterogeneous and complex. Monoaminergic-related polymorphisms may influence medication response and susceptibility to side effects in elderly individuals.
Pharmacogenomic strategies against microbial resistance: from bright to bleak to innovative.

The last decade saw an alarming increase in antibiotic resistance in infections, with more than 13 million deaths per year from infections. Counter strategies include hygiene, antibiotic restriction and new antibiotics such as quinupristin, linezolid, tigecycline, daptomycin and dalbavancin.

Methotrexate-induced subacute neurotoxicity in a child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia carrying genetic polymorphisms related to folate homeostasis.
Am J Hematol. 2011 Jan;86(1):98-101
Authors: Vagace JM, Caceres-Marzal C, Jimenez M, Casado MS, de Murillo SG, Gervasini G
Subacute methotrexate neurotoxicity (MTX-NT) may occur days to weeks after systemic or intrathecal (IT) MTX administration and is often manifest by stroke-like symptoms.
The pharmacogenetics of antidepressant-induced mania: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Bipolar Disord. 2010 Nov;12(7):702-6
Authors: Daray FM, Thommi SB, Ghaemi SN
Antidepressant-induced mania (AIM) has been associated with the serotonin-transporter-linked promoter region (5-HTTLPR) polymorphism in some studies but not in others. We conducted a meta-analysis of those studies and other studies of genetic predictors of AIM.
