Advancements in Organ Transplantation: Breakthroughs and Innovations
Author(s): Rocco Minervini*
Organ transplantation has undergone significant advancements and witnessed breakthroughs in recent years, leading to improved patient
outcomes and expanding the possibilities for successful transplantation. This mini-review provides an overview of the key innovations in
organ transplantation. It explores advancements in organ preservation techniques, such as machine perfusion systems that mimic the
human body's conditions, enhancing organ viability. Immune system modulation has also seen progress with the development of more
targeted and effective immunosuppressive drugs and personalized cellular therapies. The field of organ bioengineering and regenerative
medicine offers hope for overcoming the organ shortage by creating functional organs using bioengineering techniques and stem cell
technologies. Xenotransplantation, the transplantation of organs between species, .. Read More»
