mice

To understand how CPD influences hearing, the team conducted experiments using mice.

Although the study was conducted in mice, scientists say that if similar results are seen in humans, cysteine from food or supplements might offer a new way to help the intestine recover faster after injury.

Scientists at Cedars-Sinai have developed "young" immune cells from human stem cells that reversed signs of aging and Alzheimer's disease in the brains of laboratory mice, according to findings published in Advanced Science.

They recreated low concentrations of the Aβ/fibrinogen complex in the lab and applied it to thin slices of mouse brain tissue as well as to living mice.

Surprisingly, their genetic blueprint is closer to humans than to mice, making them an important species for studying how organisms maintain health over long lifespans.
