Applications of Animal Models

cell model animal model organism animal model

The model animal has played an important role in the history of life sciences and medicine, with a wide range of application in biology, medicine, molecular biology, molecular genetics, immunology and other fields.

Humanized Mice

NMG mice with human-derived CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells can be used for reconstruction of multi-lineage human immune cells, and represent effective model animals for studies on immuno-oncology and infectious diseases.

About Us

Our vision is to become the leader in the field of genetically modified animal models，helping people understand the life science and improving quality of life around the world.

Mouse models for cancer research

Tumor bearing Mouse DEN model PDX model CDX model

Shanghai Model Organisms Center provides multiple types of tumor-bearing mouse models for cancer research and drug efficacy testing, including cell line-derived xenograft model (CDX) and patient-derived xenograft model (PDX). While PDX models better reflect the heterogeneity and diversity of human cancers, CDX models allow researchers to advance their pre-clinical drug development in a cost- and time-efficient manner.

Blood Analysis

Mouse serum mouse serum albumin

At Shanghai Model Organisms Center, we use an automatic biochemical analyzer to measure a specific chemical composition of serum according to the principle of photoelectric colorimetry. This can be used to assess liver and kidney functions or measure blood sugar, blood lipids, and electrolytes.

Model Repository

model repository

Shanghai Model Organisms has established more than 18,000 genetically modified mouse models using three core technologies of gene editing. It has more than 10,000 proprietary genetically engineered mouse models that can be directly used for studies on gene functions, drug screening, and human diseases. At the same time, Shanghai Model Organisms has more than 30 fluorescent-labeled tumor cell lines, which can be used for in vitro experiments, studies on tumor bearing mice and other tumor researches.

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.
