Australia's Roadmap to Excellence: Non-Animal Models at the Forefront of Medical Progress

A non-animal model refers to an experimental system or method used in scientific research or testing that does not involve the use of animals. These models are developed to simulate biological processes, test hypotheses, or study diseases without the need for live animals. The aim is often to reduce the reliance on animal testing, which has ethical implications and raises concerns about animal welfare.

Revolutionizing Medicine: FDA Explores Innovations to Propel Cell and Gene Therapy Advancements

Cell therapy involves the transplantation and manipulation of living cells to replace and repair damaged tissue. Its primary branches include stem cell therapy and non-stem cell therapy. Stem cell therapy utilizes stem cells to repair, replace, or rejuvenate damaged or diseased cells and tissues as they possess the ability to differentiate into various specialized cell types, making them valuable for regenerative medicine. Non-stem cell-based therapies typically involve somatic cells isolated from the human body. These cells are propagated, expanded, selected, and then administered to patients for curative, preventive, or diagnostic purposes. On the other hand, gene therapy seeks to treat diseases by introducing, replacing, or inactivating genes within cells.
