[Xenotranplantation and porcine endogenous retroviruses].

Virologie (Montrouge, France)
Xenotransplantation using pigs as the transplant source has the potential to resolve the severe shortage of human organ donors. Pig production is a very well controlled process and a high sanitary status for pig products is relatively easy to achieve allowing the production of pathogen free animals (SPF).

Xenotransplantation and the risk of transmission of porcine endogenous retroviruses: an overview

Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 2002
Abstract There is a significant shortage of available organs for transplant in the United States and worldwide. Although it has been postulated that organs from animals, such as pigs, may someday be used for such transplants instead, the existence of the porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) has been implicated as a potential risk factor for this ...

Characterising and Mapping Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses (PERVs)

2000
The initial focus of this PhD project was on comparative gene mapping. Comparative gene mapping is facilitated by consensus PCR primers which amplify homologous gene fragments in many species. As a part of an international co-ordinated programme of comparative mapping in pigs, 47 CATS (Comparative Anchor Tagged Sequence) consensus primer pairs for loci
