Pig Cloning Using Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer.

Pig Cloning Using Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer. Methods Mol Biol. 2021;2239:1-18 Authors: Ouyang H, Han J, Huang Y Abstract Porcine cloning technology can be used to produce progenies genetically identical to the donor cells from high-quality breeding pigs. In addition, genetically modified pigs have been produced by somatic cell nuclear transfer using genetically modified porcine fetal fibroblasts. The method of preparing genetically modified pigs is critical for establishing pig models for human diseases, and for generating donor animals for future xenotransplantation. This chapter describes detailed procedures for generating cloned pigs using fetal fibroblasts as nuclear donors. PMID: 33226609 [PubMed - in process]
