Stable transfection results in sustained, long-term expression, whereas expression is eventually lost following transient transfection as the host cell replicates. Scientists apply stable transfection to long-term and large-scale genetic and pharmacological studies. Transient transfection can be used for short-term studies, such as studying the effects of gene knock-in or knock-down.
