Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.

A novel mouse model simulating C5 palsy after cervical surgery

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study establishes a reliable mouse model of permanent C5 palsy (post‐laminectomy complication) via dorsal approach, selectively severing the C5 anterior nerve root while preserving the posterior root through partial C4 and C5 laminectomy. The model successfully replicates clinical C5P features—flaccid shoulder paralysis, electrophysiological ...

Evaluation of quantitative muscle MRI and an intelligent phenotyping housing system as advanced phenotyping methods in a mouse model of calpain 3‐deficient muscular dystrophy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...

Electrical Impedance Myography Detects Disease Progression over 12 to 24 Months in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Targeted therapies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are progressing through clinical trials. Electrical impedance myography (EIM) provides a noninvasive biomarker of muscle composition that may be valuable especially in early phase trials. This study evaluated EIM data from a multicenter FSHD cohort over 24 months.
