Abstract

Xenotransplantation is one alternative to transplantation of human organs which has been investigated. It is generally accepted that the pig represents the most logical choice of animals to serve as organ donors for xenotransplantation. Moreover, the implementation of cloning by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) and transgenic techniques have resulted in the production of numerous transgenic pigs than can be used for xenotransplantation purposes as well as models for human diseases.

Cell Fate Conversion By mRNA

mRNA-based technology is being studied as a potential technology that could be used to reprogram cell fate. This technique provides the potential to generate safe reprogrammed cells that can be used for clinical applications. Here is the latest research on cell fate conversion by mRNA.
