Cancer Gene Therapy I
Gene therapy is much in the news today. This article describes the principles behind the technology, and the criteria that must be satisfied in order for gene therapy to be successfully applied to the treatment of cancer. One of the major challenges facing the researcher is to find an effective delivery vehicle; therefore, I have presented the most common methods.
