Göttingen minipigs present with significant regeneration kinetics after sphincter injury compared to German landrace gilts; a feasibility study
Göttingen minipigs inherit significantly superior sphincter regeneration capacities compared to landrace pigs. This difference may bias preclinical studies in urology and other fields and explain in part seemingly contradictory results from different animal studies.
