After the development of modern genetic editing techniques, xenotransplantation became the potential solution to the shortage of organs for transplantation. Since 2017, our group has been leading a research effort for the development of genetically modified pigs for this purpose. With the support of XenoBrasil (startup that has EMS as a partner and some of the leading researchers of this …
Motivated by the growing need for transplantation-available organs and the latest developments in genomic editing technologies such as the CRISPR-Cas9 system, significant progress in the efficiency and safety of xenotransplantation techniques has been achieved in the last two years. Genetically engineered pigs developed to prevent receptor hyperacute immune rejection have been successfull…

Corneal diseases are considered the fourth cause of blindness in the world, with keratoplasty being the classic treatment indicated in cases of severe corneal opacity. However, this procedure has disadvantages such as the risk of graft rejection and the limited availability of quality corneas. The national and global waiting lists for a cornea transplant exceed 20,000 and 12 million patie…
