Artificial Cells for the Development of Cell Therapy
Cell Transplantation, 2008 In developing cell therapy, normal human cells are ideal as a cell source, but considering the serious lack of donor organs, it is unlikely to obtain a large enough amount of human cells.

, 2003 Porcine xenotransplants may offer a potential solution to the problem posed by the limited supply of allotransplants. However, xenotransplantation may be associated with the risk of transmission of microorganisms, in particular of porcine endogenous ...

Retrovirology, 2018 Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) are present in the genome of all pigs, they infect certain human cells and therefore pose a special risk for xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues and organs.

Screening for Viruses in Indigenous Greek Black Pigs
MicroorganismsThe successful advancement of xenotransplantation has led to the development of highly sensitive detection systems for the screening of potentially zoonotic viruses in donor pigs and preventing their transmission to the recipient.

Productive Infection of Human Primary Cells and Cell Lines with Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses
, 2001 Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) infect human cells in vitro and therefore represent a risk for xenotransplantation. However, first clinical transplantations of pig cells into humans or ex vivo perfusions did not result in transmission of PERVs ...

Cell Transplantation, 2005 As the risk of porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) infection is a major obstacle to the xenotransplantation of porcine tissue, we investigated whether an AN69 hollow fibre membrane, used for islets of Langerhans transplantation, could prevent the ...
