community Is it possible to transplant mice skin into human body? in Transplants 47 upvotes 9 months ago Transplanting mice skin to humans is not feasible due to immune rejection, but some suggest genetic modification or immune suppression could make it possible. Xenograft hair transplants are discouraged.
