This research 'holds promise for advancing studies on using pig livers to support or even replace human liver function,' says ...

In a human organoid-based mechanistic investigation, researchers revealed how an immunosuppressive drug, antithymocyte ...

A pig's liver has been transplanted into a human recipient for the first time in a ‘milestone’ for organ transfers between animals and people. Scientists in China used a liver taken from a seven-month ...

A genetically modified porcine liver has been successfully transplanted into a human subject, constituting a historic precedent in the field of organ transplantation. The liver demonstrated functional ...

A modified pig liver transplanted into a human patient appears to have functioned normally for the duration of the investigation with no signs of rejection. For 10 days, the liver performed its basic ...

In a medical first, doctors have successfully transplanted a pig liver into a human patient, who subsequently lived for almost half a year. The 71-year-old man's own liver was irreversibly scarred by ...

Scientists from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and their collaborators have used human stem cells to develop liver organoids that faithfully replicate key zones observed in human livers ...

Leveraging human organoid-based mechanistic investigation, researchers reveal how an immunosuppressive drug, antithymocyte ...

"At one level, it shows that we have taken a significant step forward at growing liver tissue in the lab that accurately mimic human liver function. While human liver organoid transplantation remains ...
