Popis: |
Gene therapy is defined as the alteration of the genetic material of a cell with resultant benefit to a patient. Gene transfer has two broad categories: one in which a therapeutic gene is delivered to the cells with the aim of treating a disease; and another where a marker gene is delivered to label a cell type to determine the fate of a cell or the marker gene. Gene therapy is now becoming a rapidly developing therapeutic modality for experimental treatment of some cancers and diseases that have no alternative treatment (1,2). |
