🐖🫁 World First: Pig Lung Transplanted into Human 🧬🌍

In a groundbreaking step for xenotransplantation, a team in China successfully transplanted a genetically modified pig lung into a brain-dead human recipient. The lung functioned for 216 hours without hyperacute rejection, offering hope to thousands on organ waitlists.

🔬 Key breakthroughs:

• 6-gene-edited donor pig

• No Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus (PERV-C) detected 🦠

• Controlled immune response 🛡️

• PGD observed but stabilized 💉

📖 Published in Nature Medicine: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41591-025-03861-x

👏 A monumental leap toward clinical trials and saving lives.
