The terminal branches of the afferent portal and efferent hepatic veins intertwine, and the sinusoids that bridge the portocentral distance have the most constant spanning distance of any organ in the body [65]. This distance measures 620 μm in pig liver [66], 385 μm in human liver...

Anatomy of the ventilatory apparatus refers to its architecture, bulk structure, vascularization, and innervation. Dimensions of tree-like structures, such as the pulmonary arterial, venous, and bronchial circuits, determine the efficiency of fluid distr
April 2019 marked a milestone for both the initiative and neuroscience research at large: BRAIN Initiative researcher Nenad Sestan, of the Yale School of Medicine, published a report in the journalNature, revealing that his research team had restored circulation and some cellular functions to pig br...
Post-natal increase of the collagen scaffold could be this obstacle to reorientation of myocardial cells. Data about developmental changes in heart collagen content in big animals are scarce; in pig, the collagen content and the cross-links increase significantly from birth to yearling piglet [15]...
