Recombinant therapies
Recombinant therapies involve using genetic engineering techniques to produce specific proteins or molecules needed for treatment. In this process, scientists insert human or other organism genes into bacteria, yeast, or cells, which then produce the desired therapeutic substances. These therapies are designed to target or replace missing or faulty proteins, such as hormones, enzymes, or antibodies, offering precise and effective treatment options for diseases like hormone deficiencies, autoimmune disorders, and certain cancers. Overall, recombinant therapies harness biotechnology to create tailored medicines that improve health outcomes.
