Mice, microbes and models of infection.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Mar 2003

Buer Jan, Balling Rudi

Abstract excerpt

We urgently need animal models to study infectious disease. Mice are susceptible to a similar range of microbial infections as humans. Marked differences between inbred strains of mice in their response to pathogen infection can be exploited to analyse the genetic basis of infections. In addition, the genetic tools that are available in the laboratory mouse, and new techniques to monitor the expression of...
