Pig-to-human kidney transplant 3D animation

The University of Alabama at Birmingham Marnix E. Heersink School of Medicine announces today the first peer-reviewed research outlining the successful transplant of genetically modified, clinical-grade pig kidneys into a brain-dead human individual, replacing the recipient’s native kidneys. These positive results demonstrate how xenotransplantation could address the worldwide organ shortage crisis

Pig-to-human kidney transplant using genetic modification seems so cool!!! Ofc

[@SanZv01]

I'm a kidney recipient and have completed 3 years and counting, it's a blessing to get a new life but sometimes I see my friends still on dylasis and I just pray all this experiment come true so that they get a second chance to life some of the patients waiting for transplant are under 15 years they haven't seen the best of life yet,,, i just pray for all of you on dylasis and reading my comments to get a new life soon. Om namah shivay🙏

I have a few question. 1. Do you know how the procedure was done. Were you briefed. Did the Surgeon cut out your old kidney and just sew on the donated organ. 2. How long did it take before urine was produced. 3. Were there any pain. 4. Did the surgeon tell you how they reconnect the blood, nervous, ureter systems. 5. How long did it take for your body stem cell to repopulate the scaffold matrix of the donated kidney. 😂❤

Please make it as fast as possible and affordable to kidney failure patients in the world. I came from a country which kidney transplantation waiting years is 13years. Please i can only hope that u can give me second life without dialysis before i died.

[@PrabaharPaul]

I pray for your health 🙏

I don't want you to die but I don't want a pig to die either. Why should a pig be killed so that you can steal his or her kidney?

What an amazing, informative animation - congratulations!

[@MiySadochok]

I heard that pig kidney transplant has a problem - it cleans the blood not like for a human, but for a pig, with different chemical result. I wish to hear more details from specialists.

[@olivernelsonetto4289]

Thanks for the doctors who have done their research and success please bring the process to our india it will be useful to people who are suffering from dyalesis. Thanks for the doctors.

[@bondamuralikrishna]

Really a great boon to human kind those who are suffering from this insoluble problem except counting days to the unwanted tragic end of life due to renal failure. Thanks to whole team of doctors and scientists who successfully achieved their goal through genetically engineered pigs body.

Usually we transplant one kidney from the donor but why in this animation they have taken away two pork kidneys and transplanted in recipients body? It's weired. If we do so the donor i. e the pig will die.

[@harshareddy4978]

Exactly my opinion too...this is ridiculous removing both kidneys from donor pig and killing it for our own sake ?! Also removing both kidneys of recipient kidneys and inserting in the same place?I don't think so this is the case for human donor to human recipient... Today my brother went through kidney transplantation who got the kidney from my Father(living donor)... Here in recipient body doctors had placed the donor kidney near to bladder but they didn't removed the kidneys which are dead (not working)... Since there was no trouble or issue with dead kidneys to stay back in the same position... That's y they didn't removed those 2 kidneys... Either they placed donor kidney near by to bladder... This is the case where there is no risk to donor nor recipient...

[@kongthai..]

How is the kidney "held in place" in the body? Isn't there connective tissues? Is the human Stem cells able to repopulate the cells in the "Modified Pig kidney cell matrix" and how long would that take. It seems difficult but as long as the media reports it, we have to pay attention. 😂❤

You could breed the pigs with O negative blood less chance of rejection. Invitro fertilization with the pig. Or even use clone and modification of the DNA. Take the organ soon after the birth of the pig, when it has still got faetus blood. I wish you all the best I pray to God that it all works and we all finally have a solution to organ transplant.
