A Humanized Mouse Model of Tuberculosis
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) is the second leading infectious cause of death worldwide and the primary cause of death in people living with HIV/AIDS. There are several excellent animal models employed to study tuberculosis (TB), but many have limitations for reproducing human pathology and none are amenable to the direct study of HIV/M.tb co-infection. The humanized mouse has been increasi...
متن کاملA Humanized Mouse Model of Autoimmune Insulitis
Many mechanisms of and treatments for type 1 diabetes studied in the NOD mouse model have not been replicated in human disease models. Thus, the field of diabetes research remains hindered by the lack of an in vivo system in which to study the development and onset of autoimmune diabetes. To this end, we characterized a system using human CD4(+) T cells pulsed with autoantigen-derived peptides....
متن کاملIron chelation effect of curcumin and baicalein on aplastic anemia mouse model with iron overload
Objective(s): The current work aimed to assess whether curcumin and baicalein can chelate iron in aplastic anemia (AA) complicated with iron overload, exploring the potential mechanisms.Materials and Methods: A mouse model of AA with iron overload complication was firstly established. Low and high-dose curcumin or baicalein treatment gro...
متن کاملA humanized gnotobiotic mouse model of host-archaeal-bacterial mutualism.
Our colons harbor trillions of microbes including a prominent archaeon, Methanobrevibacter smithii. To examine the contributions of Archaea to digestive health, we colonized germ-free mice with Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, an adaptive bacterial forager of the polysaccharides that we consume, with or without M. smithii or the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio piger. Whole-genome transcri...
متن کاملHumanized-BLT mouse model of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection.
Lack of an effective small-animal model to study the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infection in vivo has hampered studies on the pathogenesis and transmission of KSHV. The objective of our study was to determine whether the humanized BLT (bone marrow, liver, and thymus) mouse (hu-BLT) model generated from NOD/SCID/IL2rγ mice can be a useful model for studying KSHV infection. We...
