[Perspectives on postgenome medicine: Neurological disorders].
Aims of scientific research on post-human genome(post-genome sequence) era would be analysis of molecular structure and function of gene products, analysis of particular phenomenon of higher organisms, and development of the way of treatment and prevention of human diseases. Particularly, in the research field of neuroscience and neurological disorders, the progress of human molecular genetics would greatly facilitate the elucidation of molecular pathophysiology of the neurological disorders and finally develop molecular therapy for the diseases. In molecular therapy, fundamental technique of gene therapy should be combined with stem cell-based cell transplantation and new drug design based of scientific evidence.
