BACKGROUND: The graft survival rate of full-thickness corneal xenotransplantation (XTP) with minimal immunosuppression in genetically engineered pigs is unknown, whereas lamellar corneal XTP shows satisfactory results. We compared graft survival between full-thickness and lamellar transplantations in the same genetically engineered pig.
METHODS: Six pig-to-monkey corneal transplantations were performed on 3 transgenic pigs. Two corneas harvested from 1 pig were transplanted into 2 monkeys using full-thickness and lamellar corneal xenotransplantation. The transgenic donor pigs used were α1,3-galactosyltransferase gene-knockout + membrane cofactor protein (GTKO+CD46) in one recipient and GTKO+CD46+ thrombomodulin (TBM) in the other.
RESULTS: The graft survival time for GTKO+CD46 XTP was 28 days. With the addition of TBM, the survival differences between lamellar and full-thickness XTP were 98 days versus 14 days and >463 days (ongoing) versus 21 days, respectively. An excessive number of inflammatory cells was observed in failed grafts, but none were in the recipient's stromal bed.
CONCLUSIONS: Unlike full-thickness corneal XTP, lamellar xenocorneal transplantation does not exhibit surgical complications, such as retrocorneal membrane or anterior synechia. The graft survival of lamellar XTP in this study was not as good as in our previous experiments, although the survival period was superior to that of full-thickness XTP. The difference in graft survival based on transgenic type is not definitive. Further studies using transgenic pigs and minimal immunosuppression need to focus on improving graft survival of lamellar XTP and using a larger sample size to determine the potential of full-thickness corneal XTP.
