Doctors transplant gene-edited pig liver into brain-dead human, shows no rejection for 10 days.

Chinese doctors have performed the world's first transplant of a gene-edited pig liver into a brain-dead human, with the organ functioning well for 10 days without rejection. This marks a significant step in xenotransplantation, potentially offering a temporary solution for patients with severe liver failure while they wait for human donor organs. The genetically modified pig liver maintained stable blood flow and produced necessary proteins, raising hopes for future breakthroughs in addressing organ shortages.
