What is one goal of gene therapy?
The goal of gene therapy is to cure a genetic disorder. Lets a gene is impaired by mutation and causing a disease. We can correct the gene by injecting DNA to the cells that have impaired gene. By this we can find out a permanent cure of that particular disease condition if it works properly.
Is the goal of gene therapy to sequence the entire human genome?
The goal of gene therapy is to develop methods of treating and, ultimately, preventing genetic disorders (such as Huntingdon's) by examining certain genetic markers. Human genome sequencing is an aid to this as it allows a greater understanding of gene interation.
What is a goal of gene therapy?
The main goal of the Genetherapy is to correct the defective genes. There are 4 types of gene therapy .they are1. Somatic Gene therapy and another is 2.Germ line gene therapy 3.Enhancement genetic engineering4. Eugenic genetic engineering.
How does gene therapy treat Canavan disease?
The goal of gene therapy is to restore normal amounts of aspartoacylase in the brain and nervous system and prevent the build-up of NAA and the symptoms of Canavan disease
A technique that involves putting a healthy copy of a gene into cells that have a defective copy of the same gene?
Gene therapy involves inserting a healthy copy of a gene into cells that have a defective copy. This can potentially correct the genetic mutation causing the disease and restore normal cell function. The goal is to treat or prevent genetic disorders by replacing or supplementing missing or defective genes.
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
Inserting working copies of a gene directly into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder is called what?
That process is called gene therapy. It involves inserting functional copies of a gene into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder to correct the genetic mutation causing the disorder.
What is the desired outcome of gene therapy?
Gene therapy has the desired outcome of eradicating or curing diseases that are caused by a specific abnormality or mutation of a gene that is a killer. It is a developing science and slowly getting results.
How does gene therapy aim to cure muscular dystrophy?
introduces good copies of the dystrophin gene into muscle cells. The goal is to allow the existing muscle cells to use the new gene to produce the dystrophin it cannot make with its flawed gene
How could gene therapy be used to treat cancer?
With the help of Gene therapy we can replace or supress the cancer gene
When was gene therapy on allowed?
in 1989 us approve gene therapy exprement on human
How does gene therapy effect children?
Gene therapy effects children by helping to cure disease and to lengthen lives. Gene therapy can also be used to eliminate diseases that are inherited.
