Experimental Xenotransplantation of Encapsulated Cells

  • Chapter

Abstract

Transplantation of xenogeneic tissues of widely divergent species is difficult due to vigorous humoral and cellular immune responses. A possible solution to this problem might be the use of microencapsulation as an immunoisolation procedure. The unique ability of cellular grafts to be enclosed in artificial membranes that permit crossover of low molecular weight substances such as nutrients and oxygen, but not of cells or high molecular weight components, provides a distinct advantage of isolated xenogeneic tissue over whole engrafted organs, and many, in the long run, prove the only way to establish prolonged survival of xenografts in patients with diseases caused by the loss or malfunction of specific cells in the body.
