Abstract

See full text

A process for transplanting into an immunodeficient mouse, which is deficient in T-cells and B-cells, human cells to form a chimeric mouse is provided. The transplanted human cells proliferate and thereby permit in vivo study of the human cells. The human cells are isolated from a human tissue source. The process comprises: i) irradiating an immunodeficient mouse deficient in T-cells and B-cells with radiation to condition the mouse for transplant: ii) transplanting into the irradiated mouse, the isolated human cells; and iii) maintaining the mouse to proliferate the human cells in and permit the human cells to spread in the mouse, to provide thereby a chimeric mouse incorporating the human cells in appropriate murine tissue.
