Contents
Hyperacute rejection of pig organs by humans involves the interaction of Galα(1,3)Gal with antibodies and complement. Strategies to reduce the amount of xenoantigen Galα(1,3)Gal were investigated by overexpression of human lysosomal α-galactosidase in cultured porcine cells and transgenic mice. The overexpression of human α-galactosidase in culture...
