Abstract:
Gene therapy for vascular disease is in the beginning stages. Each year investigators are increasing our understanding of the molecular and cellular biology of vascular disease and its complications. Our genes exert exquisite control over the expressed molecular pattern that results in biological function and pathology. Gene transfer techniques can be used to affect the pattern of gene expression. Gene therapy is a powerful tool that will allow specific manipulation of the genetic cascade that determines biological function. Gene transfer techniques should help to define the molecular mechanisms involved in vascular pathology, such as atherosclerosis and its complications. Currently, gene therapy has only reached clinical trials, but this new technology will likely play a major role in our treatment of vascular problems in the future. An understanding of the significance of this new technology is important for both health care providers and patients.
