    Study Notes

    • Genetic diseases are caused by mutations in DNA.
    • Some genetic diseases can be passed down to future generations.
    • Cell therapy and gene therapy are biomedical treatments for diseases.
    • Both therapies aim to treat, prevent, or cure diseases.
    • Cell therapy restores or alters sets of cells, while gene therapy replaces or introduces genes into cells.
    • Cell therapy uses cultivated or modified cells, while gene therapy alters genes in specific types of cells.
    • Some therapies are considered both cell and gene therapies.
    • Both therapies have the potential to alleviate the underlying cause of genetic diseases.
    • Gene therapy can be done inside or outside the body, while cell therapy is done outside the body.
    • Both therapies have different approaches but share the goal of treating diseases.
