Advancing Porcine Organs for Human Transplants: Successful Kidney Grafts in Monkeys

Design and testing of a humanized porcine donor for xenotransplantation Recent studies have explored the potential of using pig organs for human transplantation. Before moving to human trials, genetically engineered pig donors need to be created, and their organ transplants must be tested in nonhuman primates. In this study, researchers describe the development of kidney…
