- European Society of Gene and Cell Therapy - European Society of Gene Therapy (ESGCT) formerly European Society of Gene Therapy (ESGT) is a legally-registered professional body which emerged from a small working group in 1992 that focused on human gene therapy.
- Pharmacological gene therapy - Pharmacological gene therapy is a new field that combines pharmacological therapy and gene therapy. It is used either to prevent a defective gene from producing its protein or to increase the concentration of normal protein produced in the body by insertion of DNA or RNA fragments.
- Therapeutic gene modulation - Therapeutic gene modulation refers the practice of altering the expression of a gene at one of various stages, with a view to alleviate some form of ailment. It differs from gene therapy in that gene modulation seeks to alter the expression of an endogenous gene (perhaps through the introduction of a gene encoding a novel modulatory protein) whereas gene therapy ...
- American Society of Gene Therapy - American Society of Gene Therapy (ASGT) is a professional non-profit medical and scientific organization dedicated to:
- Gene therapy - Gene therapy is the insertion of genes into an individual's cells and tissues to treat a disease, and hereditary diseases in which a defective mutant allele is replaced with a functional one. Although the technology is still in its infancy, it has been used with some success.
