GENE THERAPY

• Treating diseases by manipulating the genetic material of the patients.

• Addition of healthy gene in the place of • Addition of healthy gene in the place of defective gene by recombinant DNA technology.

• Genetic diseases may be cured• Viruses are used as vectors

Page 28: Biotechnology karnataka puc

TYPES OF GENE THERAPY

Ex vivo gene therapy• Gene is added to cells separated

from body (outside the body).• Ex. ADA deficiency/ SCID

In vivo gene therapy• Gene transferred directly to cells

inside the body.• Ex. Cystic fibrosis

Page 29: Biotechnology karnataka puc
Page 30: Biotechnology karnataka puc

Somatic gene therapy• Only somatic or body cells are used for

gene therapy.• Effect short lived, not inherited

Germline gene therapy• Germ cells (eggs, sperms, zygotes) used

for therapy.• Effect permanent, inherited. Not

permitted at present for ethical reasons.

MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES

• Antibodies are protein molecules produced by B-lymphocytes during infection/ antigenic stimulation.
