"Animal experiments from physiology, pathology, and treatment not only make it applicable to theoretical medicine, but without comparative studies in animals, it is impossible for practical medicine to obtain scientific characteristics
—— Bernard, the father of experimental physiology
The rise of innovative drugs in recent years has driven the rapid development of downstream CRO services, and the popularity of CRO has driven the demand for upstream experimental animal models
With a good track and head venture capital endorsement, it is necessary for us to further understand the animal model industry
Introduction to Laboratory Animals
Experimental animals refer to animals that have been artificially cultivated to control their carrying microorganisms and parasites, have a clear genetic background or have a clear source, and are used for scientific research, teaching, production, verification, and other scientific experiments
Among them, mice are the second mammals to complete whole-genome sequencing after humans.
Experimental animal models can reduce risks and improve efficiency in the development of new drugs
Main types of experimental animals
Due to the huge investment in the clinical phase of drug research and development, in order to reduce the risk of clinical trial failure, it is necessary to more appropriately construct and use animal models to screen drugs in the preclinical phase, which will help risk advancement, reduce costs and improve efficiency
Among the mammalian experimental animals, experimental mice are the most widely used
1.
In 1909, Clarence Cook Little in the laboratory of Professor William Ernest Castle of Harvard University obtained the first inbred mouse strain DBA with homozygous alleles and consistent genetic background through inbreeding.
The development of microbial control in mice in the 1940s can control the mouse strains from being infected by specific pathogens, and they are SPF-level specific pathogen-free animals
In 1966, scientists discovered spontaneously mutated nude mice with immunodeficiency phenotypes.
Since the 1970s, genetically engineered mice have entered the public eye
The emergence of targeted gene editing technology in this century has once again revolutionized the paradigm of life science research
2.
Development history of experimental mouse models in my country
The development of experimental animal mouse models in China started relatively late.
It was first started by Professor Qi Changqing in 1918 at the former Peking Central Epidemic Prevention Office
.
In 1946, Professor Tang Feifan introduced Swiss mice, which were later bred into Kunming mice that are widely used
.
In the 1950s, in order to prevent various infectious diseases, a large number of vaccines and vaccines were researched and produced.
China has successively established six biological product research institutes in Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Changchun, Chengdu, and Lanzhou, and established relatively large-scale research institutes.
Large experimental animal breeding and breeding base
.
In 1982, the National Science and Technology Commission held the first National Laboratory Animal Science and Technology Work Conference.
In 1988, the "Regulations on the Management of Laboratory Animals" was issued, followed by the "Methods for the Quality Management of Laboratory Animals", "Measures for the Management of Laboratory Animal Licenses (Trial)" and other laws and regulations Also introduced one after another, mouse strain breeding, quality control and standardization construction are developing rapidly.
Experimental mouse model strains used in specific disease research are constantly being cultivated and introduced, and the number of use is increasing rapidly, and they are widely used in life science research and new drug development
