Studies on transplantation of porcine meniscus and articular cartilage into monkeys are important for evaluating the possible use of such tissues in humans. In addition, such studies shed light on the chronic xenograft rejection process in primates. Transplantation of porcine cartilage into cynomolgus monkeys for 2 months results in a many-fold increase in anti-Gal activity and in a strong cellular inflammatory response of T lymphocytes and macrophages within the implants. The objective of this study was to determine whether elimination of Galalpha1-3Galbeta1-4GlcNAc-R (alpha-gal epitopes) from the xenograft may alter the immune response and the inflammatory reaction.
