Cloning pigs as organ donors for humans [PDF]

open access: possibleIEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2004
In order to overcome this shortage of organs, scientists have considered the possibility of using animals as a source of organs. Xenotransplantation, or xenografting, is the process of transplanting live organs between different species. ne choice of source animals will be of prime importance for xenotransplantation.

Therapeutic cloning applications for organ transplantation

Transplant Immunology, 2004
A severe shortage of donor organs available for transplantation in the United States leaves patients suffering from diseased and injured organs with few treatment options. Scientists in the field of tissue engineering apply the principles of cell transplantation, material science, and engineering to construct biological substitutes that will restore ...

Cloned riboprobe for detection of a mycoplasmalike organism

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1988
A [32P]-labeled single stranded-RNA probe (riboprobe) was constructed with plasmid vector pSP64 and used to detect and specifically identify an uncultured pathogenic mycoplasmalike organism in infected host. The riboprobe was more sensitive and reliable than complementary double stranded-DNA probe in detection of western X mycoplasmalike organism. When

The Organization and Evolution of Cloned Globin Genes

1980
The globin genes represent a complex set of sequences that are expressed in a coordinate fashion during the development of red blood cells. while this complex family of genes may consist of as many as ten to fourteen members [34], three of these genes have now been cloned and their entire nucleotide sequence determined. As was initially observed in the

Sequence organization of cloned intracisternal a particle genes

Cell, 1980
Seven recombinant DNA clones containing mouse intracisternal A particle genes were isolated and analyzed by restriction enzyme digestion, Southern blot analysis and heteroduplex mapping. The sequence organization of the individual genes was found to differ, with one end of the gene region being most variable, while a central segment of 1.8 kb was ...

Behavior Cloning by a Self-Organizing Decision Tree

2007 IEEE International Conference on Integration Technology, 2007
It is hard to define a state space or the proper reward function in reinforcement learning to make the robot act as expected. In this paper, we demonstrate the expected behavior for a robot Then a RL-based decision tree approach which decides to split according to long-term evaluations, instead of a top-down greedy strategy which finds out the ...

Evaluation of a cloned Babesia bovis organism as a live immunogen

Veterinary Parasitology, 1986
A Babesia bovis isolate was cloned by in vitro cultivation and compared to the original cultured isolate for pathogenicity by animal inoculation. Four yearling heifers were inoculated with cloned material and 4 with the original culture. The four animals which received the cloned Babesia showed comparatively minor hematologic changes and no clinical ...
