متن کاملCalcification of decellularized and alpha-galactosidase-treated bovine pericardial tissue in an alpha-Gal knock-out mouse implantation model: comparison with primate pericardial tissue.
OBJECTIVES Immune reaction against the α-Gal(Galα1,3-Galβ1-4GlcNAc-R) epitope is known to be one of the important factors for calcification of bioprostheses. The genetically manipulated α-Gal knock-out (KO) mice lacking the α-Gal epitope and containing anti-α-Gal antibodies may simulate an immune response against xenoantigens in primates including humans. The aims of this study were (i) to comp...

Histological examination of the mesothelioma showed a mixed fibre-epithelial patern,with areas of myxoid changes. Since it is a rare tumor we have reviewed the literature on the pericardial ...
