What Role Does Nanotechnology Play in Gene Therapy?
Nanotechnology plays a critical role in gene therapy by providing efficient delivery systems for genetic material. Nanovectors such as viral and non-viral nanoparticles can transport DNA, RNA, or CRISPR-Cas9 components into cells, facilitating gene editing or gene silencing. This precision at the nanoscale level enhances the therapeutic potential while reducing off-target effects.
