Porcine to Human Heart Transplantation: Is Clinical Application Now Appropriate? [PDF]
, 2017 Cardiac xenotransplantation (CXTx) is a promising solution to the chronic shortage of donor hearts. Recent advancements in immune suppression have greatly improved the survival of heterotopic CXTx, now extended beyond 2 years, and life-supporting kidney ...

Equivariant perverse sheaves on Coxeter arrangements and buildings [PDF]
Épijournal de Géométrie Algébrique, 2019 When $W$ is a finite Coxeter group acting by its reflection representation on $E$, we describe the category ${\mathsf{Perv}}_W(E_{\mathbb C}, {\mathcal{H}}_{\mathbb C})$ of $W$-equivariant perverse sheaves on $E_{\mathbb C}$, smooth with respect to the ...

Safety of Xenotransplantation: Development of screening methods and testing for porcine viruses [PDF]
, 2018 Xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues or organs might be a promising solution to overcome the shortage for organs suitable for allotransplantation. Because of several reasons, the pig is currently the favoured donor species.

Gopakumar-Vafa invariants via vanishing cycles [PDF]
, 2018 In this paper, we propose an ansatz for defining Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of Calabi-Yau threefolds, using perverse sheaves of vanishing cycles. Our proposal is a modification of a recent approach of Kiem-Li, which is itself based on earlier ideas of ...

Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses in Xenotransplantation—Molecular Aspects
Viruses, 2014 In the context of the shortage of organs and other tissues for use in human transplantation, xenotransplantation procedures with material taken from pigs have come under increased consideration.

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*
Xenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020 Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Presence of Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus C in Domestic Pigs [PDF]
, 2023 The goal of this study is to create new mutations in the Asymmetric Leaves1 (AS1) gene of Arabidopsis using CRISPR vectors to induce mutations. The intention is to analyze these mutations in order to better understand the structure and function of the ...

How Active Are Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses (PERVs)?
Viruses, 2016 Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) represent a risk factor if porcine cells, tissues, or organs were to be transplanted into human recipients to alleviate the shortage of human transplants; a procedure called xenotransplantation.
