What are the Challenges in Using Catalysts for Gene Therapy?
Despite their potential, using catalysts in gene therapy presents several challenges:
Specificity: Ensuring that catalysts target the correct genes without affecting other parts of the genome is critical to avoid off-target effects. Delivery: Efficiently delivering catalysts to the right cells and tissues while avoiding the immune system is a significant hurdle. Stability: Catalysts must remain stable and active long enough to achieve the desired genetic modifications.
