@PRahfeld of @ubcmsl / @AvivoBio presents fascinating data on proof of concept for blood group conversion for human kidneys using ex-vivo machine perfusion at #ATC2023SanDiego
Very interesting talk on ABO incompatible kidney transplantation and blood group conversion of human kidneys with ex vivo machine perfusion. Potential to eliminate blood groups as a factor in donor kidney allocation. This can significantly shorten wait times.

Member Spotlight: @AvivoBio (formerly ABOzymes), a British Columbia-based preclinical-stage company, has identified enzymes that convert the cell surface antigens that determine a person’s blood group to group O, the universal donor type. https://t.co/SSdgIdeJtb

@LumiraVentures @ubcentrepreneur Dr. John Coleman of @AvivoBio presented enzymes that convert the cell surface antigens that determine a person’s blood group to group O, so a person’s blood type is no longer the first constraint when they need life-saving organ transplants or blood transfusions.
Here’s a scary-good story: we’re funding an @AvivoBio project that is testing an innovative technology to convert A blood types to O – paving the way to universal blood and organ transplants. If successful, this would be a life-saving leap forward.
Have a🩸good #Halloween.
