Adenovirus is a common viral vector used in gene therapy to introduce new genes into specifically targeted cell types.
Is it true that Adenovirus is a common viral vector used in gene therapy to introduce new genes into specifically targeted cell types?
Yes. Adenoviruses are widely studied and utilized as viral vectors in gene therapy and virotherapy to deliver genetic payloads and introduce new genes into targeted cell types, particularly in cancer research.
Verdict: SUPPORTED · 6 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The retrieved papers consistently describe adenovirus and engineered adenoviral vectors as established platforms for gene delivery, tumor targeting, and gene therapy applications. The claim is well-supported by multiple recent reviews and experimental studies.
