At UNMC Drs. Larisa Poluektova and Santhi Gorantla have been working on humanized mice for past 12 years and pioneered novel humanized mouse model with functional human immune system for the studies of NeuroAIDS and with human liver for HIV-1 and HCV co-infections (published work).
Their expertise in this mouse model ensued in procuring an R24 NIH grant to further genetically modify NSG strain, with the help of Dr. Channabasavaiah Gurumurthy (Director of Mouse genomics), to improve the accommodation of human immune system in mice for vaccine development and to include human drug metabolizing enzymes in NSG mice for drug interaction studies.
This facility was established through an R24 grant from the National Institutes of Health.
