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
