Strain Description
The NKG-hFcRn mouse is a humanized model constructed by replacing the exon 2 coding region plus partial intron 2 of the mouse Fcgrt gene in situ with the "Human FCGRT CDS-3'UTR of Mouse Fcgrt-WPRE-BGH pA" cassette. It expresses human FcRn to replace the endogenous mouse FcRn. The homozygous NKG-hFcRn mice are viable and fertile. This model may help evaluate the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of human immunoglobulin G in transplantation research, human tumor xenografts, and mouse tumor allografts.
