A ‘Game Changer’ For Organ Transplants: Blood Type of Donor Kidneys Altered in Breakthrough Research_我的网站

一 |     Breakthrough new research could significantly increase supply of organs for people with rarer blood types waiting for a transplant, reported The Guardian.,A team of scientists from the University of Cambridge have successfully altered the blood type of three donor kidneys. By flushing blood infused with a special enzyme through a human kidney the scientists removed the blood type markers lining the blood vessels of the organ.,The procedure required using a device that is connected with a donor’s kidney to pass oxygenated blood through it - a normothermic perfusion machine. As a result, the organ was converted to type O, considered the universal donor.,Blood Group Compatible,As the blood type of a donor must be compatible with the recipient’s, the new development could increase the supply of kidneys available for transplant.,A kidney from someone with blood type A cannot be transplanted to someone with blood type B, or visa versa. In such a case, the receiving body’s immune system would reject the new organ, interpreting the different blood type as foreign.,So changing the blood type to the universal O would mean the donor organ could be used for people with any blood type.,“Our confidence was really boosted after we applied the enzyme to a piece of human kidney tissue and saw very quickly that the antigens were removed. After this, we knew that the process is feasible, and we just had to scale up the project to apply the enzyme to full-size human kidneys,” Serena MacMillan, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge, said.,Scientists involved in the research, funded by charity Kidney Research UK and due to be published in the British Journal of Surgery, clarified that the outcome might have particular implications for minority ethnic groups.,Science & TechGood News for ABs: Scientists Can Now Change People's Blood Type21 February, 16:34 GMT,Some blood groups such as O Rh positive and B Rh positive are more prevalent among black, Asian and minority ethnic communities. To complicate matters further, some rare blood types are only found within the black, Asian and minority ethnic communities,This typically places them at a disadvantage, as they struggle to find a match. With low donation rates from these populations, stressed the researchers, sometimes such patients wait for as long as over a year for a compatible donor. They cited figures from 2020-21 showing that just over 9% of total organ donations in the UK came from black and minority ethnic donors. On the other hand, black and minority ethnic patients make up 33% of the kidney transplant waiting list.,“It’s very exciting to think about how this could potentially impact so many lives,” added Serena MacMillan.,The “potentially gamechanging” research was applauded by Dr Aisling McMahon, the executive director of research at Kidney Research UK.,The scientists will now test the reintroduction of other blood types and observe how the novel approach in clinical settings.。    重磅福利来了！为回馈广大购彩者的支持与厚爱，福彩快乐8游戏双重福利活动惊喜来袭，“浙江1300万元赠票活动”和“全国4.18亿元大派奖活动”将于8月28日同步开启，双重惊喜叠加，让这个夏季好运翻倍！　　此次浙江福彩1300万元赠票活动将从快乐8游戏第2026230期(8月28日零时起)开始，至第2026255期(2026年9月22日)结束，活动期间，凡在浙江省内购买快乐8游戏且单票投注金额达到20元及以上的购彩者，均有机会获得1张“机选5注2倍”面值20元的快乐8"选六"玩法赠票，是否获得赠票，则由系统随机生成。如购彩者在购买了一张20元快乐8彩票，投注机出票时，第一张彩票的票面标注了“恭喜获得20元赠票”统一字样，意味着购彩者中了赠票奖，所中赠票也会紧随其后打印出来。赠票总额1300万元，每期赠票50万元，送完当期即止；若当期未赠送完则自动滚入下期，促销最后一期资金未使用完毕，活动也将终止。　　获得赠票是第一重福利，所获赠票还可参加全国4.18亿元大派奖活动，根据中福彩快乐8游戏派奖规则，“选二”“选五”“选六”“选九”4个玩法的部分奖级均可参与派奖，具体来说，就是“选九中九”特别奖，单注奖金将从原来的最高25万元增加到最高50万元；“选六中六”，单注奖金将从原来的2880元增加到4500元至5000元；“选五中五”，单注奖金将从原来的1000元增加到1300元至1400元；“选二中二”单注奖金将从原来的19元增加到23元至25元。具体派奖规则可登录浙江福彩官方网站、微信公众号等查看2026年中国福利彩票快乐8游戏派奖活动规则。　　快乐8双重福利已就位，喜爱这款游戏的购彩者朋友们可要接住这波福利了，一次购彩，多重惊喜，期待大家福运满满。
