Is it safe short-term? Is it ethical? Pig hearts are similar in size to human hearts and have an anatomy that is similar, but not identical. So far, Bennett's body has not rejected the pig heart, which experts said is the biggest concern after a transplant. Xenotransplantation, transplanting animal cells, tissues or organs into a human, carries the risk of triggering a dangerous immune response, which can cause a "potentially deadly outcome to the patient," according to University of Maryland Medicine.
Muhammad Mohiuddin, professor of surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, who oversaw the transplant procedure with Griffith, said. Four genes were knocked out, three of them responsible for producing antibodies that causes rejection. Mohiuddin and Griffith said they are now closely monitoring Bennett to make sure his body continues to accept the new heart.
He is recovering and speaking to his caregivers," said Griffith. Speaking of the possibility of rejection, Griffith added, "The pig heart will be attacked by different soldiers in our body, different immune players can take it out and we have designed a treatment plan, in addition to the humanized, genetically-edited heart, to try to account for that.
