Mouse Models

in Medical Research Mouse models are a commonly used tool in medical research to understand the biological basis of human diseases. They are used to test the efficacy of drugs and treatments, the interactions between genes and diseases, and to investigate the potential for gene therapy. Research using mouse models has greatly improved our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of human diseases, and has helped to develop important new therapies. This type of research is critical for further advances in medical science and for understanding the underlying causes of human disease.
