What are the Challenges and Risks Associated with PRT?
While PRT offers significant benefits, it is not without challenges and risks:
1. Immune Reactions: The administration of foreign proteins can sometimes trigger immune responses, leading to allergic reactions or the development of antibodies against the protein. 2. Infection Risks: Especially with IV or intratracheal administration, there is a risk of infection if sterile techniques are not rigorously followed. 3. Cost and Accessibility: PRT can be expensive, and access to these therapies may be limited in low-resource settings.
