DNA research testing

English to Russian Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals
In a drug study, the main reason for DNA research testing is to help doctors, in the future, choose the most appropriate drug for each person. DNA is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Your DNA is found inside all
the cells in your body, including your blood. You can think of DNA as a giant book of instructions (genes) that your body uses to know how to build you the way you are. There are instructions for eye and hair color, and instructions that tell your body how to react to medicines. As with any medicine, some people taking the study drug may respond well while others may not respond at all. Researchers would like to learn how differences in your genes may affect how you and other people with bipolar I depression
respond to the study drug. In the future, this type of research may help doctors know if a patient will respond or not to this medicine before they prescribe it.

Genetic testing, also known as DNA testing, is used to identify changes in DNA sequence or chromosome structure. Genetic testing can also include measuring the results of genetic changes, such as RNA analysis as an output of gene expression, or through biochemical analysis to measure specific protein output.[1] In a medical setting, genetic testing can be used to diagnose or rule out suspected genetic disorders, predict risks for specific conditions, or gain information that can be used to customize medical treatments based on an individual's genetic makeup.[1] Genetic testing can also be used to determine biological relatives, such as a child's biological parentage (genetic mother and father) through DNA paternity testing,[2] or be used to broadly predict an individual's ancestry.[3] Genetic testing of plants and animals can be used for similar reasons as in humans (e.g. to assess relatedness/ancestry or predict/diagnose genetic disorders),[4] to gain information used for selective breeding,[5] or for efforts to boost genetic diversity in endangered populations.[6]
