Xenotransplantation Literature Update: January–June 2026
ABSTRACT In the first half of 2026, xenotransplantation advanced through refinement rather than dramatic new clinical milestones. Clinical studies described graft physiology, immune infiltration, complement activation, coagulation incompatibility, and early function in living recipients, decedent models, and clinical islet xenotransplantation ...

First virological and pathological study of Göttingen Minipigs with Dippity Pig Syndrome (DPS).
Dippity Pig Syndrome (DPS) is a well-known but rare complex of clinical signs affecting minipigs, which has not been thoroughly investigated yet. Clinically affected animals show acute appearance of red, exudating lesions across the spine.

Abstract The choice of cell source for generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is influenced by several factors, including accessibility, reprogramming efficiency, and the invasiveness of the cell collection procedure. Traditional sources such as skin fibroblasts or peripheral blood mononuclear cells often require invasive sampling, which can

Active HHV-6 Infection of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells in Mood Disorders
Early-life infections and associated neuroinflammation is incriminated in the pathogenesis of various mood disorders. Infection with human roseoloviruses, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, allows viral latency in the central nervous system and other tissues, which can ...

Humanized Mouse Models of Epstein Barr Virus Infection
Abstract The oncogenic Epstein Barr virus (EBV) is an exclusively human pathogen with related lymphocryptoviruses (γ1‐herpesviruses) only present in monkeys. Therefore, experimentation with EBV infection in a small animal model requires reconstitution or adoptive transfer of human lymphocyte populations, primarily EBV's main host cell, the human B cell.
