摘要
The dramatic development of liver transplantation compared to a relative shortage of donors has brought a renewed interest to xenotransplantation. Because of anatomical and immunological compatibilities, nonhuman primates are the most appropriate donors. The aim of this work was to analyze the different problems of a baboon-to-man liver xenotransplantation. Thirty baboons bred in a French Primatology Center were studied. The analysis of anatomical, microbiological, and immunological data showed that only 8 baboons out of 30 were suitable as donors for xenotransplantation. Considering these data and the ethical issues, the actual feasibility of xenotransplantation programs is discussed.
