Animal Welfare

laboratory animal welfare

Shanghai Model Organisms Center (SMOC) has always placed significant emphasis on the welfare of laboratory animals and treats all laboratory animals with respect.

Health Report

animal health report

Shanghai Model Organisms Center (SMOC) provides you with model mice that have been raised under specific pathogen-free (SPF) barriers. Since obtaining AAALAC-accreditation in 2012, Shanghai Model Organisms Center Co., Ltd. has adhered to the standards outlined in the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (Guide). You can download the monthly mice health report here.

Behavioral Analysis

study of animal behavior behavioral analysis

Shanghai Model Organisms' rodent behavioral analysis platform is equipped with a variety of experimental instruments used to study the classical behaviors of mice. Shanghai Model Organisms can provide single-item or complete sets of mouse behavioral analysis to assist you with your research in neurology, physiology, drug development, and drug efficacy evaluation. The Noldus behavioral analysis system is used to more comprehensively and accurately reflect the neurological and mental states of mice.

Evaluating the Efficacy of Tumor-targeted Antibody in vivo

immunotherapy immune checkpoint immune checkpoint genes

As the most frequently used animal model, mice have been widely applied in the evaluation of drug efficacy. However, the human immune checkpoint genes only share ~60% identity with their murine counterparts. Thus antibodies that recognize human proteins do not necessarily interact with murine proteins, making it inappropriate to use wild type mice for evaluating the in vivo efficacy of human-specific antibody. The humanized immune checkpoint mouse models (Immune-Hu models), which were independently developed by Shanghai Model Organisms Center, are ideal models to evaluate the efficacy of anti-tumor antibody therapy.

Disease Mouse Models (Non-genetically-engineered)

diseases mice diseases model non genetically modified organisms

Shanghai Model Organisms has established a library of typical mouse models of human diseases through surgery or drug induction, thereby providing useful animal models for the research on pathogenesis of related diseases, functional studies of genes or proteins in diseases, screening of disease drugs and evaluation of therapeutic effects, etc.

Osteoporosis

osteoporosis gene osteoporosis diseases Tnfrsf11b

Tnfrsf11b (Opg) knockout mice were generated through homologous recombination and supplied by Shanghai Research Center for Model Organisms. This mouse model, which is referred to as the "osteoporotic mouse", shows a typical phenotype of osteoporosis and arterial calcification, and Therefore, this animal model is ideal for drug screening and evaluation for the treatment of "human osteoporosis", in gene therapy of osteoporosis, as well as in the research on the mechanisms of interaction between osteoclasts and osteoblasts.

Drug Screening

drug screening high throughput screening for drug discovery

With a comprehensive model organisms service platform that generates the mouse, zebrafish and C. elegans models, Shanghai Model Organisms enables high-throughput drug screening as well as the evaluation and research on drug efficacy, thus accelerating drug development and achieving greater accuracy in the prediction of in vivo interactions.
