What is Gene Therapy? Gene therapy is a relatively new concept, it is an experimental technique that uses genes to theoretically treat and prevent various types of Illnesses/Genetic Disorders such as Haemophilia, Cancer, Chronic Granulomatous Disorder and Cystic Fibrosis. The process of gene therapy involves the use of a Viral Vector (Most Common Form) other forms of delivery which are non-viral include the injection of naked DNA, sonoporation and magnetofection. Diagram 1 .1 Shows us how an unmodified

illness. For example, rabbits suffer from atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), as well as diseases such as emphysema, and birth defects such as spina bifida. Dogs suffer from cancer, diabetes, cataracts, ulcers and bleeding disorders such as haemophilia, which makes them natural candidates for research into these disorders. Cats suffer from some of the same visual impairments as humans. From such models we learn how disease affects the body, how the immune system responds, and even who will be

and those that do occur tend to be moderate and self-correcting - like dizziness or minor bruising around needle points. Yet, as with any treatment there are some conditions in which acupuncture is not advocated - those with metal allergies or haemophilia are not proposed to get treatment at all, and individuals with pacemakers should just do so with caution. The actual question is - How effective is acupuncture? Despite being an alternative medicine instead of consistently considered as the go

Migration of significant populations from these high frequency areas to low frequency states in Europe has dramatically amplified in recent decades and in some European countries sickle-cell disease is now more familiar genetic conditions such as haemophilia and cystic fibrosis.[68] As 176,000 deaths due to SCD in 2013 up from 113,000 deaths in 1990.[10] Sickle-cell disease is more common among people whose ancestors lived in tropical and sub-tropical sub-Saharan regions where malaria was common.

The Russian Revolution of 1917 did not just suddenly happen overnight, just as there was no main reason why it happened. The Revolution was more like a virus or bad bacteria. At first you barely notice it, even though you know it is there, but soon it starts to multiply and take over your body and before you know it you have been diagnosed with a terminal illness. There are about 4 or 5 significant reasons why there was the revolution of 1917, with the Russian Tsar Nicolas II to be the blame for

Emily Malkin M2- assesses the hazards identified in health and social care setting. D1- makes recommendations in relation to identify hazards and minimise risks. In Pool Meadow just like anywhere else there are risks and hazards and risk assessments have to be carried out to prevent the risks and stop hazards. I have carried out on my own risk assessments one for indoor one for outdoor and one on a service user in am now going to pick out some risks and talk about the consequences, impact on

Rasputin left Siberia he wandered during his journey, he gained the reputation of the people, and they believed he was a man with mystical powers, this rumours spread around Russia. The Tsar family had a son which they named him Alexei who had haemophilia a type of diseases that affected the blood which stops it to be able to clot. The Tsarina heard about Rasputin mystical power and quickly called him to the winter palace. The Tsarina met Rasputin and immediately she was fascinated with Rasputin

technology is a hugely significant leap forward as this is a tool that could potentially be used for the research into and hopefully the treatment of a range of medical conditions that are genetically related. Cystic fibrosis (Schwank, G. et al, 2013), haemophilia and sickle cell disease are an example of some of the conditions that have the
