The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the expression of human decay-accelerating factor in transgenic pigs on hyperacute rejection in a pig-to-baboon heterotopic heart transplantation model and to assess the ability of such transgenic pig hearts in supporting the life of a primate when transplanted orthotopically
