Abstract

A variety of viral diseases that are refractory to vaccination or therapy are potentially amenable for treatment by gene therapy. Human gene therapy can be defined as the introduction of new genetic material into cells of an individual with resulting therapeutic benefit to the individual (Morgan and Anderson, 1993). Gene therapy for viral diseases requires the introduction of anti-viral genes into cells, to prevent or inhibit viral gene expression or function and consequently limit viral replication and pathogenesis.
