Abstract

Since von Mering and Minkowski’s demonstration of diabetes in pancreatectomized dogs,1 animal research has played an important role in our understanding of diabetes and metabolism, transplant immunology, organ preservation, and developmental biology. Animal models have also improved surgical techniques in vascular and transplant surgery, empowering the transplant surgeon to make the first attempts and finally succeed in transplanting organs from one human to another.
