Characterization of Mono- and Bi-Transgenic Pig-Derived Epidermal Keratinocytes Expressing Human <i>FUT2</i> and <i>GLA</i> Genes—In Vitro Studies
Pig-to-human xenotransplantation seems to be the response to the contemporary shortage of tissue/organ donors. Unfortunately, the phylogenetic distance between pig and human implies hyperacute xenograft rejection. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that combining expression of human α1,2-fucosy...
