Meditation: Effective Gene Therapy?

These days, scientific medical research ascribes many human diseases to cellular genomic mutation. Many scientists and doctors are working to find specific methodologies to modify these disordered genes. However, this isn’t a situation concerning only a few cells in the body. Therefore, correcting mutant genes in human bodies is not an easy thing.

Because normal and abnormal cells in patients are from the same origin, it’s very hard to distinguish between them. Although scientists try to use viruses, antibodies, or various other ways to recognize target proteins on mutant cells that are found only on abnormal cells to replace the disordered genes with healthy ones, it is extremely hard to accomplish this, and it is fraught with many possible complications. So, gene therapy is a dream without practical application in the foreseeable future. (MORE)
