Mouse models to evaluate the function of genes associated with allergic airway disease
10 Aug 2012
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: In recent years, considerable effort has been invested in developing mouse models of allergic airway disease, as a means of evaluating the role of select genes in its pathophysiology. Here, we review the principal models used in this field, including models of allergic asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. As an example of how these models can reveal novel functional roles for genes, we...
