The Role of SLAs in Xenotransplantation
20 May 2020
Abstract excerpt
Advances in genetic engineering, particularly CRISPR/Cas9, have resulted in the development of a triple glycan-knockout (TKO) pig. There is minimal human antipig antibody binding to TKO pig cells. The TKO background has decreased antibody binding to a sufficiently low level that any additional xenoantigens expressed on the cells can now be more easily detected. One of these xenoantigens is the swine major...
