Abstract:Transplantation remains the preferred treatment for end‐stage kidney disease but is critically limited by the number of available organs. Xenografts from genetically modified pigs have become a promising solution to the loss of life while waiting for transplantation.

As of today, there is limited understanding regarding the preservation of these organs, including… Show more
