An Introduction to Humanized Immune System Mouse Models

Researchers generate cutting-edge mouse models by engrafting human cells and tissue into the animals to better study the human immune system.

Scientists have employed mouse models in immunological studies for over a century; however, these models, much like other systems, are unable to perfectly recapitulate the human immune system. To address this problem, researchers have developed various methods to humanize their mouse models and make them more translatable for drug studies.
