The use of transgenic animals to enhance people and animal health

Transgenic animals are becoming increasingly extensively utilized for a variety of applications. Animal transgenesis has three main applications: Author obtaining information on gene functioning, as well as human diseases, (ii) obtaining high-value products for human medicine, and (iii) improving animal products destined for human consumption. All of these applications have something to do with human health, whether directly or indirectly. In 1980, animal transgenesis became a reality. Significant advancements in the techniques have been made, and are constantly being made, in order to decrease costs and animal slaughter, as well as to enhance the relevancy of the models. This involves gene transfer and the creation of dependable transgenic expression vectors. From a technical standpoint, this paper summarizes the current status of animal transgenesis. It also discusses some of the medicinal applications based on the usage of transgenic animal studies. The progress in the production of pigs for use as organ donors and the synthesis of medicinal proteins from milk and other potential biological fluids from transgenic animals is discussed. The current initiatives aimed at increasing animal productivity via transgenesis are also shown. Some of the particular biosafety or bioethical issues presented by various transgenesis uses, including transgenic animal protein consumption, are addressed.
