First experience with heterotopic thoracic pig-to-baboon cardiac xenotransplantation.
BACKGROUND Heterotopic thoracic heart transplantation may be an alternative to the established heterotopic abdominal or orthotopic cardiac xenotransplantation model as it combines the safety of heterotopic transplantation with the benefit of a working heart model. METHODS In a first series of two animals, we tested the surgical feasibility of this procedure with non-transgenic pig hearts tran...
متن کاملa risk-scoring model to predict one-year major adverse cardiac events after percutaneous coronary intervention
background: the aim of the present study was to develop a scoring system for predicting 1-year major adverse cardiac events (mace), including mortality, target vessel or target lesion revascularization, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and non-fatal myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention (pci). methods: the data were extracted from a single center pci registry. the ...
متن کاملThe role of antibodies in acute vascular rejection of pig-to-baboon cardiac transplants.
Long-term success in xenotransplantation is currently hampered by acute vascular rejection. The inciting cause of acute vascular rejection is not yet known; however, a variety of observations suggest that the humoral immune response of the recipient against the donor may be involved in the pathogenesis of this process. Using a pig-to-baboon heterotopic cardiac transplant model, we examined the ...
متن کاملChimeric 2C10R4 anti-CD40 antibody therapy is critical for long-term survival of GTKO.hCD46.hTBM pig-to-primate cardiac xenograft.
Preventing xenograft rejection is one of the greatest challenges of transplantation medicine. Here, we describe a reproducible, long-term survival of cardiac xenografts from alpha 1-3 galactosyltransferase gene knockout pigs, which express human complement regulatory protein CD46 and human thrombomodulin (GTKO.hCD46.hTBM), that were transplanted into baboons. Our immunomodulatory drug regimen i...
متن کاملLong-term survival after orthotopic and heterotopic cardiac transplantation.
Five long-term survivors of heart transplantation were reinvestigated. Two patients had undergone orthotopic heart transplantation over 11 and 9 years earlier and constitute two of the world's longest-surviving patients after this procedure. Three patients had undergone heterotopic heart transplantation (one left heart bypass alone and two biventricular bypass) four to six years earlier. Four o...
