Xenotransplantation could have an impact on at least three
aspects of medicine. The first is as a means of overcoming a severe
shortage of human donor organs for the treatment of organ failure.
The second aspect relates to the possibility that a xenogeneic
organ would not be susceptible to infection by a "human" virus and
thus the xenograft might resist injury caused by such viruses. The
third and, as of yet, unexplored aspect relates to a means of
delivering genes for therapeutic purposes thus overcoming some of
the limitations of "conventional" gene therapy.
