Gene Expression under F8 Promoter Driving In Mouse Hepatoma Cells: A Step towards Gene Therapy of Hemophilia
Background and Objectives: Significant progress has been made in treatment of hemophilia. Ex-vivo gene therapy is going popular due to the capability of this method in using isogenic cells for genetic manipulation and reintroducing them into same host after proliferation. Most gene therapy techniques use viral vectors, which usually harbor a strong and non-specific promoter (e...

Human gene therapy has attracted increasing attention as a highly encouraging therapeutic approach to treat wide variety of diseases, other than genetically inherited and monogenic disorders. This approach entails the introduction and expression of a variety of nucleic acids into human target cells for therapeutic purposes. In this article, we review the history, highlights, recently progresses...
متن کاملBeta thalassemia gene therapy using lentiviral vectors
Recent years, allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has proved to be the successful cure for patients with thalassemia major, however this is restricted due to limited matched-related donor. Its complications include chronic graft-versus-host disease in 5-8% of patients. So, a molecular approach, such as gene therapy for direct normal beta globin gene transmission, seems quite promising ...

Religious scholars were among the first to address the challenges of genetic science. In this regard, religious institutions from the beginning has debate on moral and religious challenges of gene therapy. Because public acceptance towards gene therapy is largely rooted in religious beliefs, Religious doctrine undoubtedly play a key role in shaping public attitudes and policy about gene therapy...
متن کاملAn Enterovirus-Like RNA Construct for Colon Cancer Suicide Gene Therapy
Background: In gene therapy, the use of RNA molecules as therapeutic agents has shown advantages over plasmid DNA, including higher levels of safety. However, transient nature of RNA has been a major obstacle in application of RNA in gene therapy. Methods: Here, we used the internal ribosomal entry site of encephalomyocarditis virus and the 3’ non-translated region of Poliovirus to design an en...
متن کاملThe Role of Gene Therapy in Cartilage Repair
The key principle of gene delivery to articulations by direct intra-articular injection is to release complementary DNA(cDNA)-encoding medical products that will lead to maintained, endogenous production of the gene products withinthe articulation. In fact, this has been accomplished for both in vivo and ex vivo gene delivery, using several vectors,genes, and cells in some animal models. Some c...
