The following information is about Animal Model.
Animal Model Defined
An animal with a disease either the same as or like a disease in humans. Animal models are used to study the development and progression of diseases and to test new treatments before they are given to humans. Animals with transplanted human cancers or other tissues are called xenograft models.
This definition is in context to Cancer. See more contextual defintions for Animal Model.

- WARNING - Parkinson's, Epidemiologica l and animal model studies, Mitochondrial dysfunction - Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, Parkinson's Institute, Sunnyvale, California - 2006: Parkinson' ;s disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder marked by nigrostriatal dopaminergic degeneration and development of cytoplasmic proteinaceous aggregates known as Lewy bodies. Although the pathogenic mechanisms responsible for PD are not completely understood, many clues have come from biochemical, epidemiologica l, and genetic studies. Mutations in certain genes found in rare, familial cases of PD, such as ?-synuclein and parkin, suggest a role for the ubiquitin-prot eosome system and aberrant protein aggregation. Biochemical analyses have implicated mitochondrial dysfunction in PD. Epidemiologica l and animal model studies point to a role for environmental toxins, some of which are mitochondrial inhibitors. Mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting from either genetic defects, environmental exposures or an interaction between the two, may cause ?-synuclein aggregation or neurodegenerat ion through oxidative stress or excitotoxicity .
