With xenotransplantation, non-human tissue or organs is transplanted into human recipients. Basically, it means that organs from a pig are transferred to a human.
Xenotransplantation is the transfer of living cells, tissues and/or organs from non-human animal species into humans. Technically it could be the other way around or between any two species. Xenotransplantation is currently not a recognized medical practice in industrialized countries, but has the potential to encompass a broad spectrum of applications.
xenotransplantation
It is a question of morals. Is it right to transplant animal cells, tissues or organs into humans?
Well, the huge disadvantage is that they do not work when used for animal-to-human transplantation (xenotransplantation), compared to allotransplantation (human-to-human). The other main disadvantage is the risk of transmitting diseases from animals to humans. Please see related link on xenotransplantation for further details.
Same DNA as humans
There are no benefits of xenotransplantation. The studies have killed nearly every primate who has been operated on, and almost the pig hearts were rejected, but yet the drug co. wants to offer pig hearts up for use despite the results! Does that sound like benefits to you? Smart guy responds: Tsk Tsk, xenotransplantation will save lives, People on the waiting list for an organ will survive thanks to xenotransplantation, besides, waiting for an organ may cost months maybe years of your life... and you just might die waiting for an organ! Xenotransplantation is necessary if you value your life and care for your friends and family. Scientist are studying a medicine called cyclosporine, a drug to fight rejection, and scientist aren't only using hearts from pigs, they use other organs such as kidney, liver etc. Organs will be easier to come by and researchers get an oppurtunity to make some money. So it all depends on your perspective on Xenotransplantation. Researchers are still studying long term affects due to the short lived pig
Anti campaigners are Animal Aid campaigners and Animal rights group who campaign peacefully against all forms of animal abuse. ARC (animal rights cambridge) give information about the danger of Xenotransplantation on internet and give you useful websites which enable you to know about demonstrations.
