Webinar: Investigating Inflammatory Disease using Humanized Cytokine Mice

Webinar: Investigating Inflammatory Disease using Humanized Cytokine Mice

Our webinar “Investigating Inflammatory Disease using Humanized Cytokine Mice” was live on Dec 1, 2021 at 1PM.

In this webinar, we will:

– Review the range of cytokines associated with various autoimmune and allergy related diseases
– Describe some of the inflammatory disease models we have developed including asthma, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis
– Introduce various humanized cytokine mouse models that can be used in disease modeling
– Detail some of the typical readouts for these models and discuss validation data our teams have produced in these models
