How do gene splicing and gene therapy difffer?
Gene therapy usually seeks to replace a defective gene in a cell with the correct one using a vector for delivery, often a virus. The result is the transformed cells will product the correct protein. Protein therapy usually refers to injecting a functional protein into a patient to compensate for its absence.
A technique that involves putting a healthy copy of a gene into cells that have a defective copy of the same gene?
gene therapy.
When was gene therapy on allowed?
in 1989 us approve gene therapy exprement on human
What 'tools' are used in gene therapy?
Viral vectors are the tools used in gene therapy.
Scientist are using gene therapy to manage-?
The main purpose of gene therapy is in cancer or tumor. The main purpose of tumor is the uncontrolled cell division. The gene responsible for the uncontrolled cell division is replaced or removed by the gene therapy. Other main treatment which disease are caused by the defect of particular gene. Other purposes are against some hereditary diseases like Cystic fibrosis or Trisomy.
Can you give a sentence using the word gene therapy?
building muscle and increase stamina through gene therapy
How does gene therapy correct genetic abnormalties?
Gene therapy corrects genetic abnormalities by introducing a normal copy of a gene into the cells of the patient. This can be done by delivering the normal gene directly into the target cells using a virus as a carrier, or by editing the patient's own genes using gene editing techniques like CRISPR-Cas9. Once the normal gene is present in the cells, it can produce the functional protein that was missing or faulty in the genetic abnormality, correcting the underlying cause of the disorder.
Inserting working copies of a gene directly into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder is called what?
Gene TherapyGenetic disorders are caused by an abnormality in person's DNA.
Why do you need gene therapy?
gene therapy is when a faulty gene is repaired or replaced
Difference between gene therapy and protein therapy?
at the gene level gene therapy is done and at the the protein level protein therapy is done
How common is gene therapy?
Gene therapy is not practiced frequently. It is still in a clinical trial level. Though just temporary results are got often using gene therapy. In 2011 a person has been completely cured of hiv by gene therapy. But still it is a very difficult process since the man's entire bone marrow had to be removed and replaced!

How could gene therapy be used to treat cancer?
With the help of Gene therapy we can replace or supress the cancer gene
Is gene therapy bad?
During the last several years, we have witnessed "the best of times and the worst of times" in the embryonic field of gene therapy. Rapid advances in human genomic sciences, the development of novel mouse models of human diseases, and the construction and characterization of new vector systems for in vivo gene transduction have significantly expanded the potential feasibility of human gene therapy. On the other hand, the tragic events surrounding the gene therapy-related death of Jessie Gelsinger and subsequent revelations about additional unreported gene therapy-related complications have seriously damaged both the scientific credibility and public confidence in gene therapy. Given these recent events, this would seem to be an opportune time to pause and carefully reassess where we are and, more importantly, where we should be going in this promising but controversial field.
