Murine animal models for preclinical islet transplantation
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease mediated by a combination of genetic and environmental triggers resulting in the lymphocytic infiltration of pancreatic islets with selective and progressive loss of the insulin-producing β cells. Even if over the years the autoimmune events have been well elucidated—at least in the mouse model—the etiology and pathogenesis of T1D involve poorly un...
متن کاملCancer Immunotherapy: Historical Perspective of a Clinical Revolution and Emerging Preclinical Animal Models
At the turn of the last century, the emerging field of medical oncology chose a cytotoxic approach to cancer therapy over an immune-centered approach at a time when evidence in support of either paradigm did not yet exist. Today, nearly 120 years of data have established that (a) even the best cytotoxic regimens only infrequently cure late-stage malignancy and (b) strategies that supplement and...
متن کاملNanomedicine for tuberculosis: Insights from animal models
Patient noncompliance to current tuberculosis (TB) therapy owing to multidrug administration daily leads to treatment failure and emergence of multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant TB. To avoid the daily dosing, application of nanotechnology is the only viable solution by virtue of sustained release of drugs. Other potential advantages of the system include the possibility of selec...

متن کاملTranslational Animal Models of Atopic Dermatitis for Preclinical Studies
There is a medical need to develop new treatments for patients suffering from atopic dermatitis (AD). To improve the discovery and testing of novel treatments, relevant animal models for AD are needed. Generally, these animal models mimic different aspects of the pathophysiology of human AD, such as skin barrier defects and Th2 immune bias with additional Th1 and Th22, and in some populations T...
