Overcoming current limitations in humanized mouse research.
Immunodeficient mice engrafted with human cells and tissues have provided an exciting alternative to in vitro studies with human tissues and nonhuman primates for the study of human immunobiology. A major breakthrough in the early 2000s was the introduction of a targeted mutation in the interleukin 2 (IL-2) receptor common gamma chain (IL2rg(null)) into mice that were already deficient in T and...
متن کاملCurrent Status and Research into Overcoming Limitations of Capsule Endoscopy.
Endoscopic investigation has a critical role in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. Since 2001, capsule endoscopy (CE) has been available for small-bowel exploration and is under continuous development. During the past decade, CE has achieved impressive improvements in areas such as miniaturization, resolution, and battery life. As a result, CE is currently a first-li...
متن کاملDirected evolution: overcoming biology's limitations.
The field of directed, in vitro evolution uses biological machinery to develop nucleic acid and peptide oligomers that bind to molecular targets, some of which are important for therapeutic applications1,2. The advantage of this approach over traditional small molecule–based medicinal chemistry is based in part on the number of molecules that may be screened: in vitro evolution can screen upwar...
متن کاملImprovements and Limitations of Humanized Mouse Models for HIV Research: NIH/NIAID "Meet the Experts" 2015 Workshop Summary.
The number of humanized mouse models for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and other infectious diseases has expanded rapidly over the past 8 years. Highly immunodeficient mouse strains, such as NOD/SCID/gamma chain(null) (NSG, NOG), support better human hematopoietic cell engraftment. Another improvement is the derivation of highly immunodeficient...
متن کاملOvercoming memory limitations in rule learning
Adults, infants, and other species are able to learn and generalize abstract patterns from sequentially-presented stimuli. Rule learning of this type may be involved in children’s acquisition of linguistic structure, but the nature of the mechanisms underlying these abilities is unknown. While inferences regarding the capabilities of these mechanisms are commonly made based on the pattern of su...
