  • 1. I received only official lecture fee from Korean Diabetes Association for this

talk

  • 2. I do not own venture corporations, and hold any stocks of pharmaceutical

companies

  • 3. Because my concerns are concentrated in the non-viral gene delivery system,

my talk might include biased opinions for the gene therapy researches using viral gene carriers

Gene Therapy for type 2 Diabetes ?

  • Polygenic disorder : Gene – Environmental Interaction
  • What is the canditate gene ?
  • Causes ? or just Risk Factors ?
  • Insulin deficiency : Insulin GT, Beta cell rejuvenation, regeneration
  • Insulin resistance : Hepatic glucose production, adipocytokines
  • CNS, neural regulation : leptin signaling

. One of the main advantages of drug or gene delivery by sonoporation is to achieve site specificity with negligible local and systemic toxicities, by the

  • ptimization of parameters of ultrasound and microbubbles.

. The dynamic characteristics of ultrasound that induce cell membrane porosity can be controlled by ultrasonic factors such as frequency, intensity and duration. . The induction of microbubble cavitation by ultrasound has been considered a major mechanism of delivery, which carries non-permeable macromolecules across the cell membrane. . Ultrasound can act synergistically with other vector systems in order to have several advantages, such as low cytotoxicity, high target selectivity, low immunogenicity and repeatable application.

. Gene delivery by sonoporation could be a possible therapeutic alternative in current cancer treatment. . Non-invasive specific gene transfection into the deep seated internal organ is very difficult. Sonoporation might be used for this purpose and the possibility for the application of this technique to the various kinds of diseases would be promising. . Particularly suited for the various localized diseases and the diseases requiring limited transfection into the deep-seated organs or tissues, sonoporation could be used successfully in clinical practice in the near future. . Along with its superior safety profile, sonoporation might be regarded as a pioneering technique that could move gene therapy a step closer to clinical medicine.
