The Ethics of Xenotransplantation [PDF]
Xenotransplantation--moving organs or cells from one species to another--is currently being actively researched as a possible contribution to the problem of a global shortage of human organs for transplants. Should xenotransplantation be encouraged, permitted, frowned upon or forbidden?

Generation of RAG2 Knockout Immune-Deficient Miniature Pigs
Recombination-activating genes (RAGs) play a crucial role in the V(D)J recombination process and the development of immune cells. The development of the immune system and its mechanisms in pigs exhibit greater similarity to those of humans compared to ...

The 2021 IXA Keith Reemtsma Lecture: Moving xenotransplantation to the clinic
Keith Reemtsma was a pioneer in xenotransplantation, the Honorary Founding President of the International Xenotransplantation Association (in 1998), and a wonderful personality. It is a privilege to be invited to give this lecture in his memory.

Immunobiology of xenotransplantation [PDF]
The transplantation of organs between disparate species is hindered by severe immune responses of the recipient against the graft. These immune responses gives rise to hyperacute and acute vascular rejection and to cellular rejection. Research during the past decade has shed light on the elements of the immune system responsible for the rejection of ...

Macrophages in xenotransplantation [PDF]
Xenotransplantation refers to organ transplantation across species. Immune rejection of xenografts is stronger and faster than that of allografts because of significant molecular differences between species. Recent studies have revealed the involvement of macrophages in xenograft and allograft rejections.

Molecular Tweezers for Biomimetic Recognition of Carbohydrates
Molecular tweezers have emerged as effective binders for biomolecules such as lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins, eliciting biological activities. Tweezer molecules, which exploit an open and adaptive binding cavity, can target relatively large guests, such as oligosaccharides and glycans, and often provide some advantages over corresponding ...

Many genetically multi‐modified donor lines for xenotransplantation have a background of domestic pigs with rapid body and organ growth. The intrinsic growth potential of porcine xeno‐organs may impair their long‐term function after orthotopic ...
