Rodent Model Customization Services for Aging Research

INQUIRY

With the increasing aging population, studies on physiological changes and diseases associated with aging have steeply grown. This has led to the use of aging animal models. Rodents, particularly mice and rats, are commonly used in aging research to study longevity and age-related diseases due to their relatively short lifespan compared to humans. These studies help researchers understand the underlying molecular mechanisms of aging and develop potential interventions or treatments.

As a reliable biological company specializing in innovative solutions for longevity studies, CD BioSciences understands the critical role that rodent models play in unraveling the complex mechanisms of aging and evaluating potential anti-aging interventions. Our team of seasoned experts is dedicated to offering a diverse array of rodent models, empowering our clients to conduct new investigations into the biology of aging.

Types of Rodent Models We Provide Customization Services

Mouse

Aging Mouse Models

Mice have long been the workhorse of aging research. We take pride in our ability to provide customized mouse models that capture the aging process. From genetically engineered strains with accelerated or extended lifespans to dietary interventions that mimic caloric restriction, we help clients design mouse models meticulously to address various research questions.

Rat

Aging Rat Models

While mice have dominated the aging research landscape, rats have also emerged as a valuable model system. Our team at CD BioSciences has developed extensive expertise in customizing rat models to study the complexities of age-related changes. Our customized rat models can be utilized to investigate the impact of aging on organ function, such as cardiovascular health, cognitive performance, and metabolic regulation.

Applications of Rodent Models in Aging Research

Investigation of aging mechanisms. Our customized rodent models provide clients with the ability to delve into the complex molecular and cellular pathways that govern the aging process. Using our services of gene manipulation, omics technologies, and detailed physiological assessments, clients can elucidate the specific aging mechanisms.
Preclinical anti-aging drug testing. Rodent models serve as crucial preclinical platforms for evaluating the efficacy and safety of potential anti-aging drugs and therapeutic strategies. By administering candidate compounds to rodents and monitoring their effects on lifespan, healthspan, and age-related pathologies, we can help clients gather valuable data to translate these candidates into human clinical trials.
Targeted interventions. Our customized rodent models allow clients to explore the effects of specific interventions, such as genetic modifications, dietary manipulations, or pharmacological treatments, on various aspects of the aging process. Pinpointing the molecular targets and pathways affected by these interventions, we assist clients in developing more targeted anti-aging strategies.

CD BioSciences is committed to moving forward in aging research through our rodent model customization services. If you are interested in our services, please feel free to contact us or make an online inquiry.
