Abstract

The Galα1-3Gal antigen (Galα) is the primary target for human natural anti-pig xenoantibodies. The presence of Galα has been shown in porcine endothelial cells (ECs) using light microscopy, whereas the expression of Galα in other cell structures in the porcine kidney is only partially characterized.
