author keywords: severe combined immunodeficiency; pig; xenotransplantation; allotransplantation; hematopoietic; RAG2; IL2RG; transgenic
topics (OpenAlex): Xenotransplantation and immune response; Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation; Diabetes and associated disorders
TL;DR: The data shows that the pig thymus provides a microenvironment conducive to engraftment, survival and development of human T-cells and provides evidence that the developing T-cell compartment can be populated to a significant extent by human cells in large animals. (via Semantic Scholar)
