Gene therapy for genetic diseases

Pediatrics International, 1998
Abstract Gene therapy provides the potential to permanently cure selected genetic diseases. However, a major obstacle is the effective delivery of the normal gene to specific target sites of pathology and continuous expression at therapeutic levels. A variety of viral and non‐viral vectors have been developed to deliver genes to various cells, tissues ...

Genetic Therapy: Somatic Gene Transplants

Hospital Practice, 1987
Both conceptual and technical knowledge is adequate to make hopes for gene transplantation therapy realistic. But we must still fulfill four criteria: matching disease and gene, devising means for multiplying that gene, introducing copies of the gene into the patient's genome, and guiding the “treated” genome into appropriate cells.

Ethical Issues in Genetic Therapy

Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic & Neonatal Nursing, 1994
Ethical issues in genetic therapy involve the use of genetic science for human good and the avoidance of preventable harms. Immediate issues are the control and confidentiality of results of genetic testing, possible discrimination against those found to have genetic diseases, and the just allocation of beneficial genetic therapies. Less practical, but

Genetically Informed Therapy in Leukemia

New England Journal of Medicine, 2013
What can we learn from the study of rare diseases? A lot. Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) occurs in 3 in 100,000 persons, yet it is perhaps the best example of “bench to bedside” medicine in oncology. The discovery of the signature BCR-ABL translocation found in all CML ushered in an era of molecular diagnostics and targeted therapy with tyrosine kinase

Emerging Genetic Therapies in Epilepsy

Seminars in Neurology
AbstractAdvances in next-generation sequencing have allowed for genetic characterization of many epilepsies that previously had no known cause. Although having a precise diagnosis has been very helpful for management, counseling, and prognosis, until recently true precision medicine approaches that could have disease-modifying effects have been lacking.

Judaism, genetic screening and genetic therapy.

The Mount Sinai journal of medicine, New York, 1998
Genetic screening, gene therapy and other applications of genetic engineering are permissible in Judaism when used for the treatment, cure, or prevention of disease. Such genetic manipulation is not considered to be a violation of God's natural law, but a legitimate implementation of the biblical mandate to heal.
