Future Iterations

 




Transgenic animals can provide milk that is more nutritious for the consumer, or that is enhanced for certain protein components. Transplantation is an accepted and successful treatment for organ failure, but there is an enormous shortage of available human organs. Scaffold-based technique is that suitable muscle cells are proliferated on a carrier called scaffold in the presence of a culture medium in a bioreactor. Such culturing results in myofibers which may then be harvested, processed and consumed as meat or its products HeLa cells have been used in testing how parvovirus infects cells of humans, HeLa, dogs, and cats. These cells have also been used to study viruses such as the or pouches virus (OROV). OROV causes the disruption of cells in culture, where cells begin to degenerate shortly after they are infected, causing viral induction of apoptosis. The virus should inhibit apoptosis, in order to prolong the life of the cell and thereby maximize the number of progeny virions. The host, on the other hand, should stimulate apoptosis thereby inhibiting viral growth and blocking viral spread. For example, the function of the latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) of the Epstein Barr virus and the BCL-2 homologue gene A179L of the African swine fever virus is to inhibit apoptosis. However, in other cases, it is the virus that stimulates cell death
