Heterotope Herztransplantation in Mäuse

My name is Hun Li.I work at Dr.Kas Lab, the Department of Surgery, university of California, San Francisco. Today I will show you the procedures for the heterotopic heart transplantation in mice. This model is very important tools for organ transplantation field since it was first introduced by doctors Carrie and Russell in 1973.

This is extremely valuable model for studying new immunosuppressive drugs and mechanisms of re rejection. Higher technical difficulties have been limited. This model by suppress used, I have modified some steps.

Make this procedure easier. I'm sure you they'll be hyper for you when you do this model.Okay? I have just shown you the procedure for heterotopic heart transplantation in mice.

The mo, the most important steps in this procedure is suitable density of sutures. This should not be too low or too tight, and osmosis should be finished in 30 minutes. This transplantation model is extremely useful for study of immunological responses after organ transplantation and ing for new immunosuppressive drugs.

I hope now you'll be able to carry out these procedures in your own laboratories. Thank you and.
