(Biyoloji,Tıp) gene therapy

Any of several therapies involving the insertion of genes into a patient's cells in order to replace defective ones

Gene therapy is the use of genetic material to treat disease. The treatment of certain disorders, especially those caused by genetic anomalies or deficiencies, by introducing specific engineered genes into a patient's cells. a way of treating certain diseases by using genetic engineering. or gene transfer therapy Introduction of a normal gene into an individual in whom that gene is not functioning, either into those tissue cells that normally express the gene (curing that individual only) or into an early embryonic cell (curing the individual and all future offspring). Prerequisites for each procedure include finding the best delivery system (often a virus) for the gene, demonstrating that the transferred gene can express itself in the host cell, and establishing that the procedure is safe. Diseases for which gene-therapy research is advanced include cystic fibrosis, Huntington's disease, and familial hypercholesterolemia; research continues on its application for Alzheimer's disease, breast and other cancers, and diabetes. Some aspects of gene therapy, including genetic manipulation and selection, research on embryonic tissue, and experimentation on human subjects, have aroused ethical controversy

method of treating disease (esp. genetic disorders) in which normal genes are introduced into the body in order to replace defective or absent genes (Medicine)
