Frontiers of Model Animals for Neuroscience: Two Prosperous Aging Model Animals for Promoting Neuroscience Research
1 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
A model animal showing spontaneous onset is a useful tool for investigating the mechanism of disease. Here, I would like to introduce two aging model animals expected to be useful for neuroscience research: the senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) and the klotho mouse. The SAM was developed as a mouse showing a senescence-related phenotype such as a short lifespan or rapid advancement of senescence. In particular,...
