  2. Xenotransfusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenotransfusion

    Xenotransfusion uses non-human animals to aid in the shortage of blood for blood transfusion in humans. Some scientists preliminarily favor Sus scrofa domesticus (pigs) as a source of blood after having tested many different animals in order to find the best candidate for a blood donation.

  3. Patient derived xenograft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patient_derived_xenograft

    Orthotopic PDXs of GBM can be established through intracranial injections of tumor cells using a stereotactic frame. [ 31 ] It has been shown that PDX models of GBM can recapitulate the histopathology, phenotypic properties and genetics of the parental patient tumor, highlighting the relevance of such models for GBM research.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenobot

    Currently, xenobots are primarily used as a scientific tool to understand how cells cooperate to build complex bodies during morphogenesis. [1] However, the behavior and biocompatibility of current xenobots suggest several potential applications to which they may be put in the future.
