Ability to create and use of transgenic animals can have a significant impact on many aspects of human life. These animals can improve medicine and provide new opportunities for the pharmaceutical or the food industry. The aim of this work is to collect available information about genetically modified animals, and the possibilities of their use in various areas of life and science. Aspects which are related to the use of transgenic animals as bioreactors for the production of proteins for therapeutic use will be discussed. The work will explain the concept of GMO, discuss the use of transgenic animals – what are benefits and risks that may be associated with it. The focus is primarily on the use of transgenic animals as bioreactors for the production of therapeutic proteins, the types of these proteins and their source of origin.
