Innovations, challenges, and minimal information for standardization of humanized mice

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2020
Mice xenotransplanted with human cells and/or expressing human gene products (also known as “humanized mice”) recapitulate the human evolutionary specialization and diversity of genotypic and phenotypic traits. These models can provide a relevant in vivo

Next-generation humanized NSG-SGM3 mice are highly susceptible to Staphylococcus aureus infection [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Humanized hemato-lymphoid system mice, or humanized mice, emerged in recent years as a promising model to study the course of infection of human-adapted or human-specific pathogens. Though Staphylococcus aureus infects and colonizes a variety of species,

A DNA Vaccine Protects Human Immune Cells against Zika Virus Infection in Humanized Mice

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2017
A DNA vaccine encoding prM and E protein has been shown to induce protection against Zika virus (ZIKV) infection in mice and monkeys. However, its effectiveness in humans remains undefined.

Potential Pitfalls of the Humanized Mice in Modeling Sepsis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Inflammation, 2018
Humanized mice are a state-of-the-art tool used to study several diseases, helping to close the gap between mice and human immunology. This review focuses on the potential obstacles in the analysis of immune system performance between humans and ...

Humanized mice: are we there yet? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2005
Animal models have been instrumental in increasing the understanding of human physiology, particularly immunity. However, these animal models have been limited by practical considerations and genetic diversity.

TLR9- and CD40-Targeting Vaccination Promotes Human B Cell Maturation and IgG Induction via pDC-Dependent Mechanisms in Humanized Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Mice reconstituted with a human immune system (humanized mice) provide a robust model to study human immunology, vaccinology, and human infectious diseases. However, the development and function of B cells in humanized mice is impaired.

The development and improvement of immunodeficient mice and humanized immune system mouse models

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Animal models play an indispensable role in the study of human diseases. However, animal models of different diseases do not fully mimic the complex internal environment of humans.

From Mice to Humans [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Diabetes Reports, 2012
The genomes of many species have now been completely sequenced including human and mouse. Great progress has been made in understanding the complex genetics that underlie diabetes and obesity in human populations. One of the current challenges is the functional identification and characterization of the genes within loci that are being mapped.

Current Advances in Humanized Mouse Models for Studying NK Cells and HIV Infection

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has infected millions of people worldwide and continues to be a major global health problem. Scientists required a small animal model to study HIV pathogenesis and immune responses.
