' Wrote:Once again, you're wrong.

The sort of medication needed to force the body to accept the organs would completely shut down the immune system, leaving the guy dead of the slightest infection in a matter of days, if not hours.
Err... Actually, biology student has a little bit to say on that. Ever heard of monoclonal antibodies? Basically, a free antibody is a protein produced by B Cells, which are then free to roam around the body. Basically, antibodies will only bind with one type of receptor (usually antigens), meaning they'll 'home in' on the antigen/receptor they're being used against.

A taliored enzyme is fused to the antibody, and you have magic bullets. This is a very real thing, and is currently being used to treat types of breast cancer (the antigens on one type of cancerous cell is worked out. Corresponding antibodies are then grown in mice and extracted - which kills the mouse. Cancer killing toxins are then fused with the antibodies, which seek out the cancerous cells. When they bind with the cancerous cells, the toxins are released, meaning only the cancer and surrounding cells are destroyed).

At the moment monoclonal antibodies are being looked into as immune inhibitors. This means doctors will be able to shut down localised areas of the immune system to increase the chance of a transplanted organ being accepted. I'd presume by Freelancer time, this would have been perfected.

That doesn't change the fact that Outcast organs should be genetically incompatible though. Besides the whole thing of blood groups and whatnot, DNA is included in -everything- not just the blood. Organs are made of tissues, and tissues are made of cells. Cells contain a nucleus, which in turn contains the famous double helix of DNA.

EDIT: @Where did it ran: I'm doing a Human Biology A Level course. Not sure if that counts, but this is rough kind of stuff I'm covering. Genetics and DNA that is, not crazy mutant space-junkies and their organs.

EDIT: Man, I love doing this to threads. I remember my last biology rant had the 'O_o' effect in that Nomad discussion too.:P
