The transplantation of living cells, tissues or organs from one species to another is termed xenotransplantation. The history of xenotransplantation is as old as allogeneic transplantation itself. Early attempts were made at a time when the immunologic basis of organ rejection were poorly understood.

The success of organ transplantation has led to an ever-increasing shortfall between the demand for organs and the supply. This has led to extensive investigation of the possible use of animals, especially the pig, as organ donors. However, a number of major barriers to successful xenotransplantation exist.

Construction of PIK3C3 Transgenic Pig and Its Pathogenesis of Liver Damage
As a member of the PIKs family, PIK3C3 participates in autophagy and plays a central role in liver function. Several studies demonstrated that the complete suppression of PIK3C3 in mammals can cause hepatomegaly and hepatosteatosis. However, the function

TP53 R249S mutation in hepatic organoids captures the predisposing cancer risk
The systematic approach in elucidating the gain‐of‐function (GOF) roles of TP53 mutations in early liver carcinogenesis. Unique downstream targets of TP53 L3 mutations were identified from chormatin immunoprecipitation sequencing in HCC cell lines, followed by a series of validation assays to substantiate the exclusive transcriptional regulations ...

Production of Triple-Gene (GGTA1, B2M and CIITA)-Modified Donor Pigs for Xenotransplantation
Activation of human immune T-cells by swine leukocyte antigens class I (SLA-I) and class II (SLA-II) leads to xenograft destruction. Here, we generated the GGTA1, B2M, and CIITA (GBC) triple-gene-modified Diannan miniature pigs, analyzed the ...

Immunogenetics of xenotransplantation [PDF]
AbstractXenotransplantation may become the highly desired solution to close the gap between the availability of donated organs and number of patients on the waiting list. In recent years, enormous progress has been made in the development of genetically engineered donor pigs.
