I mean, a lot of it is pseudo-science that works however Ishida says it works without really considering actual science.

But the kakuhou changed some of the structures in his body, particularly when he was injured and those tissues healed. The major thing it does is create RC pathways inside the body, with the one scan we saw showing that Kaneki's body is basically filled with them from all the times he's regenerated. The Kakuhou is basically parasitic, it infiltrates the entire body and tweaks normal functions.

But his genetics weren't messed with, since Nishiki mentioned the problem of his telomeres not being able to keep up with a ghoul's regeneration. Dragon seems to have helped address some of his issues, but it didn't transform his genetic code.

Transplants can alter some things in your body, but it won't mess with your genetic code. It's completely different levels of biological function.

But Ichika is a true hybrid, which means the genetics she got from Kaneki were human.
