“…The research in the UTx field has been conducted in several animal models, including rodents (mouse, rat) (27)(28)(29)(30), large domestic species (sheep, pig) (31)(32)(33)(34), and lately also nonhuman primates (baboon, macaque) (35)(36)(37). In general, the initial observations and key experiments have been done in rodents, and the conclusions from these experiments have then been used in experiments in the large domestic species with sizes of pelvic organs and vasculature closer to human.…”
