متن کاملVectors for Gene Delivery
Gene therapy bases its rationale on the transfer of genetic components (genes or fragments thereof) into somatic cells, with the aim of preventing, correcting, or healing various types of disorders. After this introductory sentence you expect us to start telling you some of the marvellous achievements in setting up the tools that allow this transfer. However, before entering into the intricate ...
متن کاملDesigning Lentiviral Gene Vectors
Gene therapy relies on the delivery of therapeutic genes into patients’ cells. The microdevices used to reach the cells and to transfer the gene payload are called gene vectors. Viral packaging machinery is often utilized to generate the particles transporting the cargo genes. Lentiviruses, a subgroup of retroviruses, are highly suitable for remodeling into gene transfer vectors because they of...
