Viruses commonly used include retroviruses, adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses. Non-viral methods include naked DNA, lipoplexes, and DNA-molecular conjugates. Gene therapy approaches for cancer include restoring tumor suppressor genes, inactivating oncogenes, suicide gene therapy, and tagging cancer cells. Limitations of gene therapy include only being able to treat single gene defects currently.
This document summarizes viral and non-viral gene transfer techniques. It discusses that gene therapy involves introducing genes into host cells to treat diseases. The two main methods are viral and non-viral. Non-viral techniques include physical methods like gene guns and electroporation, as well as chemical methods like cationic liposomes and polymers. Viral vectors commonly used are retroviruses, adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses. While viral vectors have higher efficiency, non-viral methods have advantages like lower cost and immune response. Overall, both methods show promise for gene therapy but further improving delivery systems is still needed.
Gene therapy aims to treat diseases by introducing normal genes into cells containing defective genes. The first approved gene therapy occurred in 1990 and treated ADA-SCID. There are two main types of gene therapy - germline modifies heritable genes while somatic only affects treated cells. Viral and non-viral vectors are used to deliver genes, with retroviruses and adenoviruses commonly used viral vectors. Recent advances include gene therapies reducing symptoms for blindness and Parkinson's disease.

This document provides information about gene therapy. It discusses that gene therapy involves genetically modifying patient cells to treat or alleviate disease. There are two main types - ex vivo therapy where cells are modified outside the body and transplanted back in, and in vivo therapy where genetic material is directly transferred into patient cells. Viruses like retroviruses, adenoviruses, and lentiviruses are often used as vectors to deliver genetic material due to their ability to efficiently transfer genes. The document outlines different applications of gene therapy and discusses strategies used depending on disease characteristics.
This document provides an overview of targeted drug delivery systems for cancer. It discusses various types of cancer and factors that contribute to cancer development. It then describes challenges with traditional chemotherapy and discusses how targeted therapies can help address issues like dose-limiting toxicity. Various targeted delivery methods are summarized, including use of monoclonal antibodies, immunoliposomes, nanoparticles, and implantable systems. The document also discusses molecular markers that can help guide targeted therapies and provides examples of FDA-approved targeted drugs.
The document discusses gene therapy, which involves inserting normal genes into patients to replace abnormal genes that cause diseases. The first approved gene therapy experiment occurred in 1990 when a 4-year-old girl with severe combined immunodeficiency was treated. There are two main types of gene therapy - somatic cell gene therapy, which treats cells in the body but is not inherited, and germ line gene therapy, which treats eggs and sperm and can be inherited but has safety and ethical concerns. Viruses are commonly used as vectors to deliver therapeutic genes directly to tissues or cells can be removed and treated ex vivo before being returned to the body. While gene therapy holds promise, it also faces challenges and risks that require further research.
Gene therapy involves introducing genes into cells to treat or cure diseases. It works by correcting defective genes that cause illnesses. The first approved human gene therapy trial took place in 1990 in the US and treated a patient with ADA-SCID. There are two main types of gene therapy - somatic cell gene therapy, which treats genes in body cells but is not inherited, and germline gene therapy, which treats genes in reproductive cells and can be passed to offspring. Gene therapy approaches include in vivo delivery of genes directly into tissues and ex vivo therapy involving culturing and modifying cells outside the body before reinsertion. Viral and non-viral vectors are used to transport therapeutic genes into target cells.
Gene transfer technologies can be used to treat diseases by inserting therapeutic genes into cells. There are viral and non-viral methods of gene transfer. Viral methods use viruses like retroviruses, adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses to efficiently deliver genes. Non-viral methods include mechanical techniques like electroporation, microinjection, and biolistics (gene gun), as well as chemical methods like liposomes, calcium phosphate, and polyethylene glycol. Each method has advantages and limitations for different applications in research and potential gene therapy.

This document discusses zinc protein motifs. It describes how zinc fingers are small protein structures that use zinc ions to stabilize their fold. There are several types of zinc fingers that differ in their three-dimensional structure but generally function to bind molecules like DNA, RNA, or proteins. Common applications of zinc finger proteins include using them as transcription factors in drug discovery and developing zinc finger nucleases.
This document outlines the steps to establish a pharmacovigilance center in a hospital. It explains that pre-marketing drug trials are limited and post-marketing surveillance is needed to monitor adverse drug reactions. The most promising locations for a new center are a governmental health department or clinical department in a hospital. A center can start by collecting local adverse drug reaction reports and expanding regionally and nationally over time. Key steps include designating staff, collecting data, educating staff, establishing a database, and promoting reporting of adverse reactions through publications and meetings. Maintaining international contacts also helps the development of an effective pharmacovigilance system.
