Party: The study was conducted last month and has not been published in the newspapers or by peer reviewers, but outside experts say it represents a major improvement. “There is no doubt that this is a very important factor,” says Darren K Griffin, a professor of genetics at the University of Kent, UK. “The research team was very careful, using a patient who had a brain injury, and tied the kidneys out of the body and stared for only a short time. There is a long way to go and find out more,” he added.
“This is a great achievement. It’s a great thing, “Dr. New York Times. However, he added: “We need to know more about the remoteness of the organ.”
Origin: In recent years, research has expanded into pigs as a reliable means of coping, but it has also encountered a number of obstacles, particularly in that sugar in pig cells triggers a strong response in humans.
The researchers experienced this by altering the donor pig to drop the gene that circulates the sugar molecules that trigger the reaction. The pig was genetically engineered Refreshing, one of the leading technology companies working on the production of pig organs for human transformation.
Great prize: There is a great need for kidney transplants. More than 100,000 people in the US are currently waiting for a kidney transplant, and 13 die every day, according to National Impso Foundation. Genetically modified pigs may be able to provide a valuable alternative to these people, if the method that can be tested at NYU Langone could work for a while.
