Neuroendocrinology of Aging: The Potential of Gene Therapy as an Interventive Strategy
@article{Goya2001NeuroendocrinologyOA, title={Neuroendocrinology of Aging: The Potential of Gene Therapy as an Interventive Strategy}, author={R. Goya and F. Bolognani and C. Here{\~n}{\'u} and O. Rimoldi}, journal={Gerontology}, year={2001}, volume={47}, pages={168 - 173} }
Objective: This paper reviews the current status of gene therapy in the neuroendocrine system and discusses the interventive potential of this methodology for neuroendocrine pathologies associated with aging. Background and Results: A brief description is first presented of the viral-vector-based gene delivery systems being currently used in the neuroendocrine system, namely the adenoviral and herpetic (HSV1) vector systems. Next, an account of the neuroendocrine pathologies for which gene… CONTINUE READING
