Strain Description
B6-hRHO (Promoter)/hRHO*P23H (Promoter) mouse is an F1 humanized model generated by crossing homozygous B6-hRHO (Promoter) mice (Catalog No.: C001646) with homozygous B6-hRHO*P23H (Promoter) mice (Catalog No.: C001727). In this model, mice carry the human RHO gene containing the pathogenic P23H mutation, and the abnormal protein encoded by the human gene is expressed in mice, resulting in retinal morphological and functional abnormalities as well as visual deficits. Additionally, leveraging the technological innovation of independently developed TurboKnockout-fused BAC recombination, Cyagen Biosciences can provide customized services for different point mutations based on B6-hRHO humanized mice to meet the experimental needs of researchers, such as pharmacodynamic studies related to retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
Application Area
Research on retinitis pigmentosa (RP)
Research on congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB)
