s_a_r_a_h 10/20/21 9:01:33 AM #1:	Scientists temporarily attached a pigs kidney to a human body and watched it begin to work, a small step in the decades-long quest to one day use animal organs for life-saving transplants. Pigs have been the most recent research focus to address the organ shortage, but among the hurdles: A sugar in pig cells, foreign to the human body, causes immediate organ rejection. The kidney for this experiment came from a gene-edited animal, engineered to eliminate that sugar and avoid an immune system attack. Surgeons attached the pig kidney to a pair of large blood vessels outside the body of a deceased recipient so they could observe it for two days. The kidney did what it was supposed to do filter waste and produce urine and didnt trigger rejection. https://apnews.com/article/animal-human-organ-transplants-d85675ea17379e93201fc16b18577c35 <cite>s_a_r_a_h posted [p:959215279] in pig kidney...

Legato-and-Vash 10/20/21 9:06:21 AM #4:	I love things like these. Makes me feel better knowing my daughter will access to even more modern medicine when she grows up. I remember reading about the BEAR procedure for ACL reconstruction that changes a normally 6-9 month recovery time down to several weeks. That is exciting to me for my daughter if she ever plays sports. I tore my ACL three times. >_> --- *~Sincerely yours, Legato and Vash~* Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/kid_prodigy23 <cite>Legato-and-Vash posted [p:959215363] in pig kidney...
