Abstract:
Gene therapy is an experimental technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease. In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient’s cells instead of using drugs or surgery. Researchers are testing several approaches to gene therapy, although gene therapy is a promising treatment option for a number of diseases (including inherited disorders, some types of cancer, and certain viral infections), the technique remains risky and is still under study to make sure that it will be safe and effective. Gene therapy is currently being tested only for diseases that have no other cures. In the Coming Presentation I will Talk about the given below topic.
- Types of Gene therapy
- Somatic Cell gene therapy
- Germ Line Gene therapy
- First successful gene therapy
- Ethical issues in gene therapy
