cells from humans into pig foetuses Photo: ALAMYThe Louis J. Fox Center for Vision Restoration in Pittsburgh wrote, "There is currently renewed interest in the possibility of using corneas from other species, especially pigs, for transplantation into humans.Current evidence indicates that the anatomical and biomechanical properties of human and pig corneas are similar. Since the cornea is an immune-privileged tissue, the human immune response to corneal cells may be less pronounced than to other cells.
