Genetically engineered mouse models in drug discovery research.

Abstract excerpt

Genetically modified mouse models have been proven to be a powerful tool in drug discovery. The ability to genetically modify the mouse genome by removing or replacing a specific gene has enhanced our ability to identify and validate target genes of interest. In addition, many human diseases can be mimicked in the mouse and signaling pathways have been shown to be conserved. In spite of these advantages the...
