New mouse model may lead to new therapies for degenerative diseases
A research team led by Albert Edge, Ph.D., principal investigator at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary’s Eaton-Peabody Laboratory and associate professor at Harvard Medical School, have engineered a new mouse that that can be used for research on degenerative disease. Their paper describing the findings, “Cre/lox mediated in vivo mosaic cell ablation to generate novel mouse models of degenerative disease,” was published on May 16 in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.
