Xenotransplantation is a process in which the cells, tissues as well as organs are transplanted from one species to the other. The living cells, tissues, or organs that are transplanted are known as xenografts or xenotransplantation. This technique is also termed heterologous transplantation.
This technique is widely used in preclinical researches done on tumors. While performing this, the tumor cells present in the humans are xenotransplanted into the immune-compromised mice. This technique also introduces a treatment for end-stage organ failure. But this is still objected on various medical, legal, and ethical grounds.
