Some Basics about Cre-lox and Inducible Cre in Mouse Modeling

Gene overexpression

gene overexpression gene overexpression protocol gene overexpression techniques

Generate a mouse model in which an exogenous gene is introduced and overexpressed. An overexpression model can be used to investigate gene functions, promoter functions, or model the pathogenesis of human disease. Depending on the method to introduce foreign DNA, a random transgenes or targeted conditional overexpression model can be created.

Inflammation Models

inflammation diseases inflammation research inflammatory factors

Inflammation is a common yet important pathological process. Any factor that may cause tissue damage can lead to inflammation. Anomal inflammatory response may result in chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases and even cancer. The regulation of inflammation-related genes is an important topic in the study of the development of inflammation.

Mice have long been the prime choice for model organisms. In more than 100 years, mice have been widely used by researchers in the fields of physiology, pathology, pharmacology, toxicology, and behavioral science. With the establishment of gene targeting technology, many researchers have made their way to the Nobel Prize.

Popular Model Organisms

Model organisms are instrumental to the study of gene functions. Gene editing technology has always played a crucial role in the research on gene functions, diseases and drug discovery, through its application in genetic engineering of model organisms, mimicking of human diseases, as well as observation of physiological or pathological changes. In particular, the CRISPR/Cas9 technology has achieved remarkable breakthroughs in recent years, significantly improving the efficiency of genetic engineering in model organisms, and facilitating more extensive and in-depth applications of animal models in various research fields.

Cancer Model
