Use of Translational, Genetically Modified Porcine Models to Ultimately Improve Intestinal Disease Treatment

Abstract excerpt

For both human and veterinary patients, non-infectious intestinal disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. To improve treatment of intestinal disease, large animal models are increasingly recognized as critical tools to translate the basic science discoveries made in rodent models into clinical application. Large animal intestinal models, particularly porcine, more closely resemble human anatomy,...
