Modulated xenogeneic organ systems in a immunocompromised host.

摘要

Xenogeneic tissue is introduced into an immunocompromised host for interacting with agents and using such interaction for evaluating efficacy of drugs and vaccines, evaluating the effect of the various agents on specific tissues and the like. Particularly, drugs can be evaluated for their efficacy against a wide variety of pathogens which infect xenogeneic tissue, and agents can be evaluated for their effect on the xenogeneic immune system.
