 Terapia genetică este o abordare revoluționară pentru tratarea bolilor genetice, în care un tratament unic poate oferi beneficii pe viață. În loc să trateze doar simptomele, terapia genică fixează boala la sursă prin înlocuirea genei defecte cu o copie sănătoasă.

O copie sănătoasă a genei defectuoase a pacientului este încărcată într-un virus care a fost îndepărtat de propriul său ADN.

Trilioane de viruși, fiecare conținând o copie sănătoasă a genei, sunt  injectat în lichidul rahidian al pacientului. 

Virușii se leagă de celulele din măduva spinării și creierul pacientului și furnizează gene sănătoase la nucleul celulei.

Several years ago, a group of ECHS1 families forged a partnership with researchers in the Bailey Lab at UT Southwestern Medical Ceneter, located in Dallas, TX, USA.

 

The Bailey Lab is working on the use of an adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector for therapeutic gene delivery.
