3 ημέρες πριν · Gene therapy, introduction of a normal gene into an individual’s genome in order to repair a mutation that causes a genetic disease. Human gene therapy has been attempted on somatic (body) cells for diseases such as cystic fibrosis and cancer.
Gene therapy is a technique used in an effort to treat or prevent disease. When a gene mutation (a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence) causes a protein to be missing or faulty, gene therapy may be able to restore the normal function of that protein. There are several different approaches to gene therapy:
1 Φεβ 2024 · Gene therapy involves using genes to fight or prevent diseases. It might mean replacing a gene that isn’t working properly, adding a "good" gene into a person who has a disease, or blocking a gene that is causing a problem. Gene therapy is already available to treat some diseases.
