| Abstract | Genetic engineering is a process involving modification of genetic material in different organisms to have the desired characteristics. Genetic engineering is an approach to produce several medical substances that are widely used, such as hormones, vaccines, antibodies and antibiotics, by improving the efficiency and lowering the cost. Moreover, genetic engineering is also used to generate animal models to study human genetic disease. This technique is also used in gene therapy, which is approved to treat single-gene diseases that are severe and have no other means of treatment, such as immune deficiency, hemophilia and thalassemia. Up to now, there have been more than 2,000 gene therapy studies in 36 countries. With the rapid progress of genetic technology in the past decade, it is highly possible that genetic engineering will be an important part in diagnosis, prevention and treatment of various diseases, which will be beneficial in improving quality of life of people. |
