基因治疗是应用基因工程和细胞生物学技术,将正常的基因转移到体内,以期通过导入基因的表达,补充缺失的或失去正常功能的蛋白质,或抑制体内某些基因过盛表达而达到治疗目的的一类方法。目前这种方法已开始应用于临床一些血液病和肿瘤的治疗,具有广泛的应用前景。 一些心血管病如高胆固醇血症,β脂蛋白缺陷症、动脉粥样硬化、遗传性高血压症亦是由于体内某些基 Gene therapy is the application of genetic engineering and cell biology techniques, the normal gene transfer to the body, with a view to the introduction of gene expression, complement the lack of or loss of normal function of the protein, or inhibition of over-expression of certain genes in the body for therapeutic purposes A class of methods. At present, this method has been applied to the treatment of some blood diseases and tumors in clinic, and has a wide range of application prospects.
