Gene therapy is a biomedical technique in which a normal or therapeutic exogenous gene is inserted into a target cell to repair a defective gene or to replace a defective gene to treat a disease.
The narrow concept refers to the replacement or addition of a defective gene in a patient's body with a gene that has a normal function for treatment.
The broader concept refers to the transfer of certain genetic material into the patient's body so that it is expressed in the patient's body, ultimately resulting in the treatment of a disease.
With the understanding of the mechanism of action of genetic material, we began to consider how to artificially intervene in the process of inheritance and expression. Based on the development of genetic technology, we began to modify and modify genes at the molecular level.
Conventional treatment is generally aimed at various symptoms caused by genetic abnormalities, which can be said to treat the symptoms rather than the root causes, while gene therapy is aimed at the root cause of genetic diseases - the abnormal genes themselves. Gene abnormalities are the essence of genetic diseases, as long as the abnormal genes are treated. Corrected, or replaced the defective gene with the normal gene, then the external symptoms will also be solved.
