The Genetic Background of Neonatal Disease

Wolfgang Göpel, Eva Westermann, Friederike Pagel

Abstract

More than 27,000 human genes have been sequenced and described. Only a few of these genes are relevant for common human diseases with regard to diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. This review describes the genetics of common traits and diseases with a particular focus on perspectives for drug discovery and drug therapy in neonates.
