Management and correction of human diseases. 6000. inherited human diseases catalogued to date, only a few are currently treatable.. Gene therapy. —introducing functional copies of a gene into an individual with two defective copies of the gene—is a potential tool for treating inherited human diseases.. Gene therapy . is when DNA is introduced into a patient to treat a genetic disease. The new DNA usually contains a functioning gene to correct the effects of a disease-causing mutation. . Gene therapy uses sections of DNA (usually genes) to treat or prevent disease. The DNA is carefully selected to correct the effect of a mutated gene that is causing disease. The technique was first developed in 1972 but has, so far, had limited success in treating human diseases. Gene therapy may be a promising treatment option for some genetic diseases, including . Lecture 4. "We . used to think that our fate was in our stars, but now we know that, in large measure, our fate is in our genes, "quotes James Watson.. Genes, DNA, Alleles. Our genetic program is made up of thousand of genes, stretches of DNA, that generally code for different proteins that do particular jobs in the cells in our body. .
