In a first step toward FDA approval of kidney xenotransplantation, a living human with end-stage kidney disease may receive a ...

And it could not be better timed—the first US-based clinical trials of pig kidney transplantation into living humans begin ...

With xenotransplantation -- animal-to-human transplantation -- poised to address the global organ shortage crisis, a pionee ...

Scientists have achieved an unprecedented look into how the human immune system attacks a transplanted pig kidney, using spatial molecular imaging to map immune activity down to the cellular level.

London, United Kingdom) A pioneering study has provided unprecedented insights into the immune response following pig-to-human ...

Scientists tracked how human immune cells attack pig kidneys after transplant—and found a way to fight back using precision therapies in the early rejection phase.

A pioneering new study by French and US researchers has shown how human immune cells interact with pig kidney tissue after transplants, showing rejection markers and throwing light on possible ...

But there's a problem, and a big one at that: The body naturally wants to reject any tissue it knows it didn't manufacture.

One of the most striking discoveries was that human immune cells were found in every part of the pig kidney's filtering system after the transplant. Researchers observed early molecular signs of ...

In a major leap toward solving the global organ shortage, an international team of scientists has unveiled new insights into how the human immune system reacts to transplanted pig kidneys. The ...
