- When we looked at some areas of biotechnology earlier in the series, we briefly touched on gene therapy, without saying much about what it is. Now we are ready to dive into this topic and see what it is all about. If a person has a defective gene, what can be done about this? Is there a way to modify the genes in someone's cells? How exactly would that work? Should we be doing this at all? We will answer all of these questions and more in this video!

it blows my mind how people figured this stuff out
yeah broe lm doing my assignment ryt now and l already have brain fatigue
I've kept watching your videos since 2017. Really helpful.
This complex topic was explained so beautifully that it was easy to absorb. All the important aspects were touched.
As a Bio student, I can tell, this is the content clarity you get after reading at least 3 authors!
as not a bio student
I had a hunch the videos are especially simple and informative
that's an important testimony to professor dave coming from someone with a more educated perspective
thanks for you input, good to know!
Cool video. I’m part of gene therapy study right now. I had severe hemophilia- after the therapy I now only have mild hemophilia. The therapy was attached to a vector virus.
Has it any scope for job?
that's amazing
the scientific ability to alleviate serious diseases at that molecular level
and your courage participating in such a study
feel well friend
@@user-nh2xc6rd5c thank you for the encouragement.
@@anusuyabose3766 it has been successful so far
How it is possible to correct mutation from all cells of body one by one
your videos are best...soooo clear
Fascinating stuff. Thanks Dave.
Good job Dr. Dave !
Great video. What will be the future? Please make a video of why R and D of science is not getting solutions which are needed on thalassemia.
Thanks a lot for this great explanation
Wow this is the first video I've watched of yours! So beautifully done! When I first heard about gene therapy I was so excited for our future!
hope you reach 1M soon
"Results have been disastrous", yeah that about sums up eugenics.
Although gene therapy is
too promising to abandon. Thanks again professor Dave for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks 4 the video🤗 since it's really helpful
I think engineered meganucleases or TALENS have a lot of promise for genome targeting. Still, I feel that most treatments are going to be restricted to diseases that can be treated by transplant of ex vivo transfected cells.
Thank you for this video Dave. Love the animation that help explain all the information. Keep up the good work
Thank you for this great video 💖
Could a regular person use a diy crispr kit and change their hair color/eye color/skin color/ or any number of traits?
🤯 this is very interesting 🤩 mind blowing
Thank you really Gold a presentation
Thanks Sir. Means a lot.
Thanks for this video 👏👏👏
Alright - had to rewrind a bunch, but I kinda get ya
Going back for the 5th viewing, and then, afterwards, I’ll be providing my GoFund Me for my Baby Yoda project.
Booyah, Professor Dave!
How does the DNA integrate into genome using electroporation?
Who's your favourite UA-camr? Is it Logan Paul? Ksi Maybe? Is it one of those gamers who have exesive levels of energy, yell lots and drives a Ferrari? No. It's a man who knows alot about the science stuff. Its professor Dave (explains).
I have nf1 which causes my body to develop random tumors. How promicing would it be for this? Like there's no way my existing tumors would just dissapear right? New ones develop periodically and the existing ones just slowly get bigger. Hope this made sense Proffesor Dave.
If they're actively suppressed in the healthy body then genetic therapy would suppress even existing tumors.
can you email where i can find this treatment you mentioned my son has x-ald terrible disease my brother already died from it now i am searching help to my son
hii professor dave!
Hope you get a lot now from youtube so you can continue making videos and for you to be stable also
mr dave
how electron absorb and EMIT photons.
i watched many of your videos about modern physics and others and also googled but couldn't find the answer. i know that electrons emits photons when it changes its energy level in atom but how electron emit/produce photons? electrons are made of quarks so do they change while emitting photons ???
electrons are not made of quarks, they themselves are fundamental particles. as to emitting photons i'm not sure how that works
@Nandan Ramesh A very simplistic way of thinking about it is smth like this: since electron is moving, it produces a magnetic filed, or in other words emitting EM waves (radiation); on a different energy level the nature of this motion changes, therefore the field (or waves) produced changes as well. This difference is represented by releasing a quant of EM radiation - photon.
On more technical level, there aren't really particles, all of them, including photons and electrons, are exaltations in respective quantum fields. Electron field of the universe constantly interacts with electromagnetic field; so when there is a change in electron's energy level, this energy excites EM field, producing what we register as a photon.
There's a great lecture on quantum fields by David Tong at The Royal Institution channel, definitely check it it out if you're interested in these things. Or at least there you'll find a much better articulated answer =)
@@DrZZZee That's why I love this channel. Great answer!
another 'new' corona did is your hairstyle :-) btw thanks for amazing video
If the behavior of the viruses are always get changed, how we exactly know, using viruses for gene therapy will be given the intent results?
Thanks man
I wonder how this type of therapy wpuld affect height
I watched your debate with Kent Hovind and you deserve so many more subs for your patience. May I ask if you are an atheist what books would you recommend?
i'm not a big reader but i love christopher hitchens
Professor Dave Explains I’ve only read “God is not Great,” really is aggressive. “Mortality” it is then. Thanks Professor!
The most famous one of all by Dawkins... The God Delusion.
Breaking the spell by Daniel Dennett, The End of Faith by Sam Harris, and God the most unpleasant character in all of fiction by Dan Barker.
Happy @UB
Hi Prof, few years back the gene therapy was only limited to the autosomal recessive diseases.Since we could only insert the desired normal allele into the genome. In your video you mentioned that the retrovirus could inactivate the mutated gene and allele , this is quite a latest information ( maybe the gene therapy is not limited anymore , it can be applied to autosomal dominant diseases?) Do you have any sources of article for this and what kind of vector that researcher use in that case ?
Hmm, I don't think I said that it could inactivate the mutant gene, nor do I think that's the case. But you don't need to, as long as the healthy protein is being expressed, it doesn't matter that the mutant protein is also present since it is nonfunctional.
Is it possible that the protein that previously could not be synthesized triggers an immune response in the patient's body?
Hi👋
Earlier hairstyle was nice sir! Ofcourse i thought someone else not Prof.Dave on the first look.
Sir.im from India and I m watching ur organic chemistry lectures.there are very useful for my IIT-JEE exam..ur lectures are somewhat easy to understand and very helpful to my iit jee exam.sir but all syllabus for IIT-JEE exam are not covered.sir so I'm requesting u pleases make videos on chemistry of IIT-JEE.it would help indians verymuch.because it is the most attempted exam in india.i hope that u know that IIT-JEE exam is!
I mean that explain some difficult concepts of IIT-JEE chemistry .I already know that u are attempting questions of iit jee
@@pleaseunsubscribeme8533 I've noticed that chemistry seems to be very popular in India. Any particular reason? Are chemists in demand in your great nation.
i like your hair and good video
Wow
Oh ok
why did you switch heads? I mean look at the neck, is that a mask or is it a head swap in post?
Huh?
@@ProfessorDaveExplains In this video and another one I see that your face and part of your neck are lighter in color. There is a definite line half way down your neck where the rest of the neck and arms are darker. So I am curious why?
@@ProfessorDaveExplains I took a few print screens but I am unable to share the pics here. I did reply but somehow it got deleted.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains I'm curious why your head and half of your neck are much lighter in color and now that I am examining it a bit further your bottom part of the neck is VERY smooth... this is inconsistent (and obviously not normal) are you able to see it?
@@HeatherDawnFineArt Um, no. My head and neck are normal.
I think gene therapy is cool.
Alien stuff for a programmer
I miss long hair dave :(
omg i was watching one of his vids from 2015 for my chemistry hw and i wanted to see how he was doing in 2020 and i see this :(
I agree
i like shorthair better
short hair is the way, my dude.
I don't understand huhu. Maybe i'll rewatch this multiple times. Help this is my topic for school demonstration huhu.
@Robert Turpin yah, that's what i do. lol, i'm done with my demo and i got 96 out of 100 grade. : ))
i agree, it's quite crucial but upon learning this therapy i think it's good. it can purely cure but yah at some point it is critical to do
@@dwardybendana3089 Good job!! :)
What's wrong with his neck?
Interesting. I learned something new.
Nanomachines, son
😍
but the intro is cracking...love it
I needed this alot lol
Can I ask here? Just for my grades hihi...Would you subject yourself for gene therapy without its 100% assurance of effectiveness? Hope someone notice this...thank you!
Nice
So, the new gene cells are inserted, and they start to replicate. The new gene cells...rupture(?) and the virus with the RNA sequence infect the older cells, mutating them? Is that sort of close? I apoligize if I'm sounding like an ignoramus, this kind of science (along with a LOT of other diciplines) fascinate me. I'm trying to distill it down to something I can wrap my head around.
No they are just regular cells with a novel gene, that's all. If it's confusing, visit my biochemistry and biology playlists to learn about cells and cellular processes.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Actually that clears it right up. Still going to watch the other vids. It's been 30 years since any biology class for me.
This technology will not be developed... Because money
First!
I dont understand why we shouldmt make an effort for eugenicts. (Sorry for the awful grammar)
If we dont make it a race thing amd just focus on objectivly justifyable properties like for exanple eyesight. The important thing is to not forbid ut vut rather enourage it. Than no morals would be voilated. Anyone disagree?
