What Are the Therapeutic Applications of Catalysis?
Therapeutic applications of catalysis include the use of [enzyme replacement therapy](href=""), where deficient or malfunctioning enzymes in patients are supplemented with functional ones. This approach is used to treat various genetic disorders such as Gaucher's disease and Fabry disease. Furthermore, catalytic antioxidants are being explored to neutralize reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitigate oxidative stress-related damage.
