What Are Immunodeficient Mice
Jun 04, 2021
Immunodeficient mice refer to the mice with defects in one or more immune components (such as T, B, NK cells) in the immune system. This type of mouse is widely used in the research of oncology (tumor growth, metastasis, anti-tumor drug screening), immunology (mechanisms of immune cell development and proliferation, pathology of immune diseases), infectious diseases (pathogenic mechanisms of viral/bacterial infectious diseases), and stem cell biology (human stem cell transplantation), and more.

Introduction to Tumor Models for Research
Jun 04, 2021
The establishment of tumor animal models provide a powerful tool for studying the mechanism of tumorigenesis and metastasis, even validating the efficacy of anti-tumor drugs. Rodent models have many advantages in tumor research, such as fast breeding, low cost, and versatile genetic modification. These traits make them an indispensable tool for preclinical therapeutics screening. Read More >

How to Effectively Generate CRISPR Gene Knockout Cell Lines? Choosing a Transfection Method
May 25, 2021
After deciding upon a CRISPR-mediated gene knockout strategy and obtaining the gRNA, the next step would be choosing the suitable strategy for cell transfection to introduce gRNA and Cas9 protein into cells. The efficiency of this transfection step directly affects the overall success rate of CRISPR/Cas-mediated gene editing and subsequent model generation. Read More >
