Scientists tracked how human immune cells attack pig kidneys after transplant—and found a way to fight back using precision ...

Hoping to someday stave off immune rejection after xenotransplantation, researchers at New York University's Langone ...

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.

Lai’s team has previously grown early-stage human kidneys in pig embryos that survived for up to a month in pregnant sows. He wanted to see whether similar results were possible for the heart.

BOSTON (WCVB) — Tim Andrews, one of four people to ever get a pig kidney transplant, was on an operating table five months ago. But on Wednesday night, he threw out the first pitch at Fenway Park.

Safer than CT scans Ultrasound computed tomography does not emit ionizing radiation, so it is a safer alternative to medical imaging that uses X-ray computed tomography, or "CAT" scans.

Using the 3D model they'd constructed, Jeevanandam, Earing, pediatric cardiologist Stephen Pophal, MD, and Rolf Barth, MD, Director of Liver, Kidney, and Pancreas Transplantation, painstakingly ...

Wednesday marked 137 days with his new kidney. Andrews is the longest-living recipient of a genetically edited pig organ and the only person in the United States with a pig kidney. To honor his ...
