Gene Therapy for Coagulation Disorders.
Molecular genetic details of the human coagulation system were among the first successes of the genetic revolution in the 1980s. This information led to new molecular diagnostic strategies for inherited disorders of hemostasis and the development of recombinant clotting factors for the treatment of the common inherited bleeding disorders. A longer term goal of this knowledge has been the establ...

There has been tremendous progress in developing techniques for manipulating genetic material, and the birth of gene therapy as a discipline has been one consequence of this. Most considerations of gene therapy in the nervous system have focused on attempts to transfer novel genes in for the purpose of protecting neurons from neurological insults. In this review, the author considers the progre...
متن کاملGene therapy for lipid disorders
Lipid disorders are associated with atherosclerotic vascular disease, and therapy is associated with a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events. Current approaches to the treatment of lipid disorders are ineffective in a substantial number of patients. New therapies for refractory hypercholesterolemia, severe hypertriglyceridemia, and low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol are...
متن کاملCoagulation disorders.
The risk of severe haemorrhage in pregnancy is well recognized, and uncontrolled bleeding remains a major cause of maternal death throughout the world, including the British Isles. The haemochorial system of human placentation carries with it an inherent risk of haemorrhage and this probably explains why the serious congenital disorders of haemostasis are predominantly found in the male. In pre...
متن کاملAntisense Gene Silencing: Therapy for Neurodegenerative Disorders?
Since the first reports that double-stranded RNAs can efficiently silence gene expression in C. elegans, the technology of RNA interference (RNAi) has been intensively exploited as an experimental tool to study gene function. With the subsequent discovery that RNAi could also be applied to mammalian cells, the technology of RNAi expanded from being a valuable experimental tool to being an appli...
