Research Abstract |
It is essential to use genetically modified animals for the elucidation of disease-related gene functions and therapeutic candidate proteins in vivo. In this field, transgenic mice are widely used in the medical research. However, due to the differences between mouse and human in lipid metabolism and cardiovascular system, it is considered that mice are not suitable for the research of lipid metabolism and cardiovascular disease of humans. In the current study, we attempted to establish a somatic cell line with cholesteryl ester transfer protein deficiency and then, using nuclear transfer technology, to make cholesteryl ester transfer protein knock-out rabbits.
