OLIVO-YEPEZ, Álvaro; LINARES-MARQUEZ, Pascual; DELGADO-ENCISO, Iván  e  MORALES-ROMERO, Zoylo. Gene therapy in Mexico and Spain, a bioethical approach from scientific research. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2021, n.53, pp.117-138.  Epub 21-Nov-2022. ISSN 1886-5887.  https://dx.doi.org/10.1344/rbd2021.53.34049.

Gene therapy is a research line that; seeks new treatments for diseases that are difficult to treat by traditional methods. This line of research has specific characteristics to be carried out, such as genetic transfer methods and diseases to treat. However, the characteristics of gene therapy may be influenced by social, economic and/or political environment of the country where it is performed, therefore the research might have a specific objective and/or application. Mexico and Spain are countries that have gene therapy projects in their educational and health institutions. However, the characteristics of this line in the above-mentioned countries and the influence that the context of each country has on gene therapy are unknown. This article aims to identify the characteristics that gene therapy research has in Mexico and Spain, through the application of questionnaires addressed to researchers from both countries. Frequency tables were used to identify the general characteristics of gene therapy in Mexico and Spain, as well as a correlational analysis to identify, among all the responses obtained, the distinctive characteristics of each country. The results suggest that the influence of the Spanish context allows the necessary characteristics to bring gene therapy to a clinical stage, while the Mexican context is restricted to promoting the basic research of this line of research.
