Joy Kong describes a plasmid-based gene therapy that injects circular DNA into abdominal tissue, where it makes cells produce follistatin that spreads through the bloodstream. Don't get liposuction on the injection site or you'll destroy the cells doing the work.
The mini circles. Gene therapy is plasmid based, so it's temporary, so it does not integrate into your DNA. It's episomal. It's an episomal DNA, which is the circular plasmid. So it has a code for follistatin on it. This plasmid gets injected in your subcutaneous tissue, which is your abdomen. It has a transformation reagent in there. Once that combines with the plasmid gets delivered into your cell and your cells in that local vicinity, like size of a pea, call it that size. They get transformed and they then start secreting the product that's on the code. Right. In this case, follistatin. So it's only in that region. Only in that region. And then your body has a very good system of just evenly dispersing your blood. Lymphatic. Everything gets dispersed. So it gets. It's systemic, so it's only in that region. You have the factory call it. So be careful with liposuction. Don't liposuction that part out. Yes, yes. I, I haven't thought about that, but yes, if you are somebody that is considering that, don't do that.
