Reference Name Animal specie Strain Thematic area Specific pathology Description
AT061 Orthotopic Xenograft of Neuroblastoma Mice (Mus musculus) NMRI-Foxn1 nu/nu Oncology Neuroblastoma
Tumor cells will be inoculated in the capsule of the adrenal gland.
AT147 Orthotopic Xenograft of Ovarian Cancer cells (disseminated model) Mice (Mus musculus) Athymic Nude Oncology Oncology & Immuno-Oncology
Intraperitoneal injection of different ovarian cancer cell lines: A2780, OVCAR8, SKOV3
AT062 Orthotopic Xenograft of Ovarian Cancer cells and Ascitic cells Mice (Mus musculus) NMRI-nude Oncology Ovarian cancer
Intraperitoneal injection of different ovarian cancer cell lines: SKOV3, A2780, A2780cis, IGROV-1, OVCAR4, OAW42, TOV112, IOSE, OAW28 and UWB1.289
AT063 Orthotopic Xenografts models of Human Cancer cell lines and PDX Mice (Mus musculus) Athymic nu/nu
NOD SCID
Oncology Glioblastoma, breast, colorectal, prostate and pancreatic cancer
Toxicity test, Dose determination, Pharmacokinetic study,Tumor Biodistribution Assay and Efficacy trial
AT148 Parkinson and Gaucher model Mice (Mus musculus) C57BL/6J Neuroscience Parkinson's disease; mutant GBA gene carrying D409V mutation
 GBA D409V knock-in (KI) mouse. Express the mutant D409V GBA protein, developed by the Micahel J. Fox Foundation. https://www.jax.org/strain/019106
AT149 Parkinson and Gaucher model Mice (Mus musculus) C57BL/6NJ Neuroscience Parkinson's disease; mutant GBA gene carrying L444P mutation
These Gba*L444P mice contain the mutation L444P in exon 10 of the GBA gene. This mutation introduces a leucine to proline mutation analogous to a common Gba mutation found in humans with the α-synucleinopathy. https://www.jax.org/strain/024574
AT150 Parkinson's disease model Mice (Mus musculus) C57BL/6NCrl Neuroscience Parkinson's disease
Neurotoxic model most used for research in Parkinson's disease as it shows a robust and reproducible phenotype due to repeated administration of the Parkinson-causing MPTP neurotoxin. This phenotype is characterized by mimicking the neurodegeneration of dopaminergic neurons linked to Parkinson's disease.
AT151 Parkinson's disease model Mice (Muss musculus); Rat (Rattus norvegicus) Sprague–Dawley (rats) & C57BL/6 (mice) Neuroscience Parkinson's disease; neuromelanin production
In vivo rodent model of age-dependent neuromelanin-like production exhibiting progressive Parkinson-like behavioral and neuropathological features. Can be combined with any other toxic and/or genetic rodent model.
AT152 Parkinson's disease model Mice (Mus musculus) C57BL/6 Neuroscience Parkinson's disease; neuromelanin production
Tg-TH-hTyr mice recapitulate the age-dependent bilateral accumulation and distribution of neuromelanin-like pigment in all catecholaminergic cell groups as in humans. Tg-TH-hTyr mice exhibit age-dependent Parkinson-like multisystem deficits leading to motor and non-motor (including peripheral) alterations. Can be combined with any other toxic and/or genetic rodent model.
AT153 Pathological Cardiac Remodelling induced by pressure overload Mice (Mus musculus) C57BL/6J Cardiovascular diseases Heart failure
Model generated by constriction of the aortic arch
