There are certain genes that lead to an increased risk of cancer, such as breast cancer genes. Gene therapy might eventually help prevent cancer in people born with these genes. Also, cancer stems from mutations in normal cells. Gene therapy might help target or stop these cells from growing.

What is difference between plasma cells and memory cells, and how do they prevent you becoming ill??
Stolb23 [73]
The difference between them is that they are active in fighting infection. Plasma cells are active in defense during the first exposure to invaders like viruses or bacteria producing antibodies. Memory cells last longer and make a copy of the invaders. This allows an extremely rapid defense later in case of a second exposure.
