According to a scientific report to be released this week, scientists from the Roslin Institute say the eggs of genetically modified chickens will contain a variety of proteins needed to make anti-cancer drugs and some serious diseases. in humans.
Scientists have inserted human genes into eggs, hatching hens with human proteins in the body. These proteins will be reproduced in chicken eggs. It is thought that in a few years, when the cycle is completed, pharmacists will separate the protein from chicken eggs to treat cancer.
This method will be cheaper, because the director of the faculty, Harry Griffin told the BBC, "the drugs are very expensive now, this innovation helps produce cheaper drugs and materials for the correct production process. just chicken food ".
Roslin currently has about 500 genetically modified chickens, the result of more than 15 years of research by Dr. Helen Sang.
According to the institute's calculations, it will take another 5 years for the patient to be tested and 10 years for the new drug to appear on the market.
