title: Gene therapy to the kidney using viral vectors.
abstract: Many pediatric diseases have reached a therapeutic plateau using currently available surgical and pharmacological approaches. Gene therapy has emerged as an exciting new technology to manipulate cells in the mammalian system, and in some cases, this method has achieved amazing therapeutic benefits. Compared to other organs, such as the brain, liver and lung, methods to genetically modify renal cells have received relatively little attention. The current review will discuss the challenges and important developments regarding gene therapy to the kidney, and relate the recent successes and failures to the future potential of gene therapy as a treatment modality in the context of pediatric disease.
