Patient With Pig Kidney Transplant Leaves From Massachusetts Hospital - VAXA Post
Patient With Pig Kidney Transplant Leaves From Massachusetts Hospital - VAXA Post
The first patient to receive a kidney transplanted from a genetically modified pig has been discharged from hospital. Richard "Rick" Slayman received the organ in March in a world first after undergoing a four-hour surgery at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston. The 62-year-old suffers from end-stage renal failure, a chronic disease where the kidneys can no longer function on their own.
"This moment - leaving the hospital today with one of the cleanest bills of health I've had in a long time - is one I wished would come for many years. Now, it's a reality and one of the happiest moments of my life," he said in a statement on Wednesday. He thanked all the medical staff involved and who have cared for him - before and after - his "historic transplant".
He added, "I'm excited to resume spending time with my family, friends, and loved ones free from the burden of dialysis that has affected my quality of life for many years. I want to thank anyone who has seen my story and sent well-wishes, especially patients waiting for a kidney transplant. Today marks a new beginning not just for me, but for them, as well."
The successful surgery has spurred hopes transplants from animals to humans - xenotransplantation - could address the global shortage of donor organs. "Unfortunately, there are not enough kidneys out there," he said, for the thousands of patients in need. This would be a huge hope for them to receive a kidney in a timely manner before they get too sick to actually get a kidney transplant - which is the best treatment for kidney disease. It was such a joyful day for all of us," said Dr Leonardo Riella, the hospital's medical director for kidney transplantation.
The kidney Mr Slayman received was modified by Massachusetts-based firm Genesis. It was genetically-edited using technology to remove harmful pig genes and add certain human genes to improve its compatibility with humans. Researchers have been trying since the early 2000s to genetically modify pigs in a way that reduces the chance of the transplant being rejected by the human immune system.
According to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), more than 100,000 people in the US are waiting for an organ transplant. Data also shows around 17 people die each day waiting, with a kidney the most common organ needed for transplant. More than 5,200 patients are on the kidney-transplant waiting list in the UK - exceeding the 3,300 transplants that are carried out each year, according to charity Kidney Research.

Octopus Killer moves_Deep in the High Seas
Cloud ink, or simply ink, is a defense mechanism used by octopuses and other cephalopods like squids and cuttlefish. Here's what it is and the role it serves:
- **Composition**: The ink is composed of melanin, the same pigment that gives color to human skin and hair, and mucus¹.
- **Function**: When threatened, an octopus releases this ink to create a dark cloud in the water. This cloud can confuse predators by obscuring their view, allowing the octopus to escape².
- **Additional Effects**: The ink may also interfere with the predator's sense of smell and taste, further aiding in the octopus's escape². It's not poisonous, but it can cause irritation if it gets into the eyes of the predator².
- **Risks**: Interestingly, if an octopus doesn't quickly clear the area after releasing the ink, it could be harmed by its own ink cloud².
This adaptation is one of the many fascinating aspects of octopus biology, showcasing their intelligence and resourcefulness in avoiding predators.

President Biden Plans to Provide Student Loan Debt Relief
President Biden announced on Monday a plan to provide significant relief to over 30 million borrowers burdened by student loan debt, aiming to fulfill a campaign promise and potentially appeal to younger voters.
Biden unveiled the proposal at Madison Area Technical College, marking his third Wisconsin visit this year and 10th since becoming president. The initiative is an expansion of federal student loan relief through the Higher Education Act, designed to address the soaring costs of higher education.
Unlike a previous proposal that faced legal challenges, this plan targets specific groups of borrowers, aiming to cancel some or all federal student loans for millions of Americans.
The plan's includes:
•Canceling up to $20,000 in interest for borrowers whose balances have inflated due to accrued interest, benefiting around 25 million borrowers.
•An additional 2 million borrowers would have their loans automatically canceled if eligible but have not applied for other forgiveness programs.
•Borrowers repaying undergraduate loans for at least 20 years or graduate school loans for 25 years.
•Students enrolled in programs with low financial value or affected by institutional misconduct.
•Borrowers facing financial hardship.
