Characterization of porcine endogenous retrovirus expression in neonatal and adult pig pancreatic islets

26 Apr 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pig islets represent an alternative to the current modes of treatment for patients with diabetes. However, the concerns over pathogen transmission including that of PERV limit their immediate, widespread usage in humans. It has been previously demonstrated that PERV copy number and particularly expression levels can vary considerably between individuals and within different tissues of a single animal....
