With a grant from NIH, the UC Davis Mouse Biology Program aims to create lab mice with aspects of the human immune system that allow them to support growth of the AIDS virus, HIV. These mice could be ...

Researchers led by the Institut Pasteur, Université Paris, have developed a vaccine that elicits anti-Immunoglobulin E ...

A breakthrough for biomedical research promises new insight into immunotherapy development and disease modeling. Scientists at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio have created ...

The global Humanized Mouse And Rat Model Market size was USD 2.1 billion in 2021. This market is expected to expand at an annual compound growth rate (CAGR of 6.5%) between 2021 to 2032. The growth of ...

Animal research models are only as effective as their ability to simulate human disease. Depending on the condition being studied, researchers were at one time limited to available species that could ...

Flow cytometry enables researchers to label proteins of interest using fluorophore-conjugated antibodies and other fluorochromes. Much like immunohistochemistry, which produces two- or ...

For the first time, scientists have successfully created a type of mouse with a 100% functional human immune system and human-like gut microbiome. This 'humanized' mouse takes the guesswork out of ...

Genetic modification aimed at understanding the function and pathology associated with specific genes is most commonly undertaken in mice, as about 99 percent of human genes have mouse orthologs. 1 ...

Antibodies are a critical feature of the human adaptive immune response. New immunotherapies require the production of selective and non-autoimmunogenic antibodies. These engineered antibodies can ...

Why do 80 to 90% of people infected with COVID-19 experience only mild cases while 10 to 20% face more severe or life-threatening symptoms? Researchers in the lab of Yale’s Richard Flavell decided to ...
