TNF, Pig CD86, and VCAM-1 Identified as Potential Targets for Intervention in Xenotransplantation of Pig Chondrocytes
Xenotransplantation of genetically engineered porcine chondrocytes may benefit many patients who suffer cartilage defects. In this work, we sought to elucidate the molecular bases of the cellular response to xenogeneic cartilage. To this end, we isolated pig costal chondrocytes (PCC) and conducted a...
