1. which of the following can be used as a vector for gene therapy? a. liposomes...
Retroviruses are typically used for gene therapy approaches. The development of the retroviral packing cell lines was critical to the development of retroviruses as vectors for gene therapy. Explain how packing cell lines help to overcome the following problems a) In order to fir therapeutic genes into retroviruses some of the viruses’ essential genes must be replaced by the therapeutic genes. How then, is the viruses able to multiply to produce the viral particles necessary to infect targets? b) Wild-type...
7) Retroviruses are typically used for gene therapy approaches. The development of the retroviral packing cell lines was critical to the development of retroviruses as vectors for gene therapy. Explain how packing cell lines help to overcome the following problems. Note: Drawing pictures will be very helpful here (10) a) In order to fir therapeutic genes into retroviruses some of the viruses' essential genes must be replaced by the therapeutic genes. How then, is the viruses able to multiply to...
. If an adenoviral vector is used for gene therapy, why might it be necessary to give the patient multiple rounds? 4. How can a “suicide gene” be used to treat cancer? 5. Rexin-G is an effective vector for tumor treatment. Describe its 2 primary modes of action.

In the 1990s, gene therapy was seen as a probable cure for many genetic diseases. List three reasons why it has so far been of limited success. Select the three correct statements. 1) The viral vector itself can also elicit a severe immune reaction in some individuals, which was the case in early gene therapy trials. 2) It is challenging to deliver the gene to the correct tissue to ensure proper wild-type expression. 3) It is challenging to determine the...
