Biomarker Discovery Certification Course
What are Biomarkers? What is their Importance in the current research scenario? Where do they find their significant applications?
To answer various such questions, Biotecnika brings you Certification Course on “Biomarker Discovery.”
What is a biomarker?
‘Biomarker’ is a word formed from a conjunction of two words biological and marker. Any organic molecule found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process or of a condition or disease can be considered as a biomarker. So biomarker marks a trait or diseased condition or a specific response to medication. Examples of biomarkers include high blood pressure, specific anatomical structures, and physiological measures.
Biomarkers are being used in basic and clinical research and clinical practices more often since specific and well-characterized biomarkers contribute to precisely predict relevant clinical outcomes across a variety of treatments and populations. They are aggressively being used in tumor research where cell type-specific markers, tissue-specific markers, tumor type-specific markers, markers of malignancy, and prognostic or predictive markers of cancers are used.
Role of Biomarkers!
- Biomarkers may help to investigate a cancer condition, much earlier than it is detected by the conventional methods used to diagnose it. Diagnostic biomarkers may be found to contribute to this.
- Biomarkers can assist in estimating the forcefulness of the disease and the expected response of the patient to the disease in the absence of effective treatment. Prognostic biomarkers are making this prophecy possible. This course on Biomarker Discovery Certification will help you understand all in detail.
- Biomarkers can also help to identify the nature of different patients who will respond to different categories of drugs. These biomarkers are termed as predictive biomarkers.
- Biomarkers of all kinds have been used by researchers, physicians, and scientists to study the etiology of various human diseases.
- Several types of biomarkers are in use like Molecular biomarkers, Physiologic biomarkers anatomic biomarkers with molecular or biochemical biomarkers being the most common.
Biomarkers are the future!
The future application of biomarkers will be to select and guide therapies for various diseases. Specific biomarkers identify a pathophysiologic perturbation or noxious mediator to counteract or the need to replete a deficient protective protein in the body. Functional genomics could identify the patients at risk for illness or chance for a poor outcome in critical illness. The genetic expression studies could help differentiate patients with sepsis from those with noninfectious inflammation and could also help to monitor diseases over time. Expressional & functional proteomics could lead to the identification of new biomarkers and organ-specific therapies.
Biomarkers are evidencing as an active area of research which can be clearly inferred from the increasing trend seen in the research articles published on biomarkers in recent decades.
Biomarkers certainly hold a tremendous potential in developing the characterized and personalized medicines and this potential should be polished to extend its benefits to the society.
