Worms Wiggle Into Gene Therapy

MANCHESTER, England, September 9 /PRNewswire/ Egg secretions from a worm that causes a deadly human disease may prove useful in gene therapy, according to research presented at the British Pharmaceutical Conference (BPC) in Manchester. Gene therapy is a method of correcting faulty genes responsible for certain diseases, particularly cancers. It involves using a carrier, or vector , to insert new genetic material to mend a faulty gene in the affected cells of the person or host . To achieve this, the vector must be able to survive the host s various defence systems and travel through the cell to its nucleus, which holds the host s genes.
