Non-viral Gene Therapy will now accelerate cancer study

Researchers at RMIT University have proved effective in laboratory tests and safer than standard viral approaches by developing a non-viral, bio-inspired gene delivery method. Gene therapy, which is widely considered to be the next limit of cancer research, includes the addition of new genes to cells of a patient to replace missing or malfunctioning cells causing the illness. Since cells do not use genes or any foreign DNA material naturall....
