METHODS OF PRODUCING HUMANIZED NON-HUMAN MAMMALS

摘要

Provided herein are methods of reconstituting functional human blood cell lineages in a non-human mammal comprising introducing human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and nucleic acid encoding one or more human cytokines into an immunodeficient non-human mammal. The non-human mammal is maintained under conditions in which the nucleic acid is expressed and the human HSCs differentiate into functional human blood cell lineages in the non-human mammal, thereby reconstituting functional human blood cell lineages in the non-human mammal. Also provided are methods of producing human antibodies directed against an immunogen in a non-human mammal, hybridomas that secrete the monoclonal antibodies as well as antibodies (e.g., polyclonal antibodies; monoclonal antibodies) produced by the B cells and non-human mammals produced by the methods.
