An association between type A porcine endogenous retrovirus copy number and hematological parameters and gender in miniature pigs

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2017
Pig is the most promising species for transplantation of organs and cells into humans, although implementation of xenotransplantation in clinical practice has been hindered by the risk of infecting the recipient with zoonotic infectious diseases. Porcine

Knockdown of porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) expression by PERV-specific shRNA in transgenic pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Xenotransplantation using porcine cells, tissues or organs may be associated with the transmission of porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs).

Reinforcement Learning With a Low‐Cost Parallel Linkage Gripper for Static and Dynamic Planar In‐Hand Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Hardware‐learning co‐design combines volar‐plate‐inspired passive‐joint constraints with mechanism‐aware reinforcement learning for a low‐cost parallel‐linkage gripper. The resulting system performs quasi‐static object adjustment and dynamic pinch grasping, demonstrating reliable planar in‐hand manipulation and successful sim‐to‐real transfer. Parallel

Characterisation of a human cell-adapted porcine endogenous retrovirus PERV-A/C. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) pose a potential risk for xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues or organs. A special threat comes from viruses generated by recombination between human-tropic PERV-A and ecotropic PERV-C ...

Engineering Biology Beyond Single Genes: Advances and Challenges in Multiplex Genome Editing

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multiplex genome editing is transforming genome engineering from single‐gene perturbation to network‐level control, yet its broader application remains limited by challenges in gRNA array engineering, delivery technologies, and safety management. Emerging AI‐driven approaches are accelerating guide RNA design and CRISPR effector optimization for ...

Managing Sustainability‐Related Human Rights Risks: The Role of Multilevel Governance and Institutional Accountability

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability‐related human rights risks, including forced labour, labour exploitation and other forms of human rights abuse, remain persistent challenges across countries, particularly where corporate accountability and national institutional frameworks are weak.

Analysis of spread of endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) of subtypes A and C in genomes of pigs of Ukrainian breeds and their correlation with fat deposition in carcasses

open access: yesЖивотновъдни науки, 2021
The article presents the results of the analysis of the frequency of PERV retroviruses of subtypes A and C in populations of pigs of Ukrainian and foreign breeds.

Xenotransplantation: Reduction of the risk of transmission of porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Xenotransplantation using porcine cells, tissues or organs may reduce the widening gap between demand and supply of human donor organs. However, this may be hampered by the presence of porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs), which belong to the γ ...

Comparison Between the Acurate Neo and the Acurate Neo 2 Transcatheter Heart Valve System: Impact of Midframe Under‐Expansion

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with the Acurate Neo has been linked to a significant incidence of paravalvular leakage (PVL), addressed by the Acurate Neo 2 incorporating an active sealing skirt. Recent findings suggest that midframe under‐expansion is associated with worse outcomes.

No Evidence of Infection with Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus in Recipients of Encapsulated Porcine Islet Xenografts

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2000
Transplantation of pig tissues into humans has the potential for cotransferring pig infections. Knowledge of the epidemiology of pig infections transmissible to humans allows the development of risk limitation strategies at the source herd level, but ...
