[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 262903, member: 3"] Summary: Genetic medicine has emerged as an innovative class of therapeutics, allowing the development of new and powerful approaches to address a myriad of diseases that were previously untreatable. At the same time, our improved understanding of the mechanisms underlying aging has created novel opportunities to intervene therapeutically in the aging process itself through the targeting of key pathways driving this process. As individuals age, the onset of a multitude of age-related diseases can significantly impact lifespan. The ultimate goal of their treatment is the maximization of healthy, disease-free years, or healthspan. Here, we discuss a number of promising genetic medicine approaches to target both general and specific mechanisms of age-related disease, and their potential impact on healthspan extension. Essential to this topic is the challenge of nucleic acid delivery, and we discuss the technologies that have been developed to address this challenge in highly promising preclinical and clinical development efforts. In particular, we describe a next-generation delivery technology for healthspan applications called proteo-lipid vehicles.
