Gene doping agents, unlike other small-molecule pharmaceuticals, trigger cells to produce performance-enhancing proteins. These proteins, which often are more elusive because of their virtually indistinguishable characteristics from naturally occurring proteins within the body, can make it more difficult to determine whether an animal or human has had gene therapy administered.
