a) Aplastic anemia and the anemia of kidney failure
b) Anemia of cancer and Parkinson disease
c) AIDS and autoimmune disorders
d) Aplastic anemia and the anemia of Huntington disease

Answer 1

The recombinant proteins produced from cloning hematopoietic growth factor genes are used to fight diseases such as aplastic anemia, anemia of kidney failure, anemia of cancer, Parkinson's disease, AIDS, and autoimmune disorders.

Step-by-step explanation:
