Next-Generation Analytical Solutions for Cell and Gene Therapy
In medicine, gene therapy is the process where nucleic acids are delivered to a patient’s cells as a therapeutic drug to treat an array of genetic diseases. All gene therapies utilize either viral or non-viral vectors to deliver the DNA or RNA into the host cell. Viral vectors infect the host cell to introduce the genetic material and are more efficient at transfecting the host cell compared to non-viral vectors like cationic lipids or chemical carriers. However, they can have immunogenic side effects depending on the specific virus used. Therefore, the choice of appropriate viral vector is a critical component when developing the drug.
