Advanced Parkinson´s disease modelling α-syn-pff injection
Alpha-synuclein (α-syn) protofibrils facilitate the formation of protein aggregates in the brain Parkinson´s disease has been extensively modelled in rodents. However, the ability to reliably recreate the protein misfolding, inflammatory responses, psychiatric and motor symptoms of PD have been hard to recreate. This model facilitates a quicker induction of α-syn aggregates in the brain of the rat and is analogous to that which occurs in the human.

R6/2 Transgenic Mouse Model of Huntington´s Disease
R6/2 mouse, which expresses mutant human exon 1 HTT was the first genetically modified mouse line produced and has been the most extensively studied and utilized mouse model of HD.
Naason Science has completed validation of R6/2 mouse line for the study of HD; the model paradigm has a complete functional and behavioral battery, imaging (MRI/MRS) and histological and molecular analysis of various regions of brain.
Naason Science model assays:
- Grip Strength
- RotaRod
- Home cage rearing
- Home cage locomotor activity
- Imaging (MRI/MRS, PET-SPECT / CT)
- Histology / Stereology
Transgenic Mouse Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis(ALS)
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing loss of muscle control. Naason Science has validated the transgenic SOD1 model of ALS. SOD1 mice exhibit a phenotype similar to ALS in humans and are the most widely used animal model in ALS Drug Discovery Studies.
Histology: NMJ innervation
Naason´s MDX Model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
MDX mouse (on a C57BL/10ScSn-Dmdmdx/J) is a the most highly used model for the study of DMD.
Naason Science has completed validation of it’s MDX mouse model for the study of DMD, the model paradigm has a complete functional and behavioral battery as well as imaging (MRI) and histological analysis of limb muscles, diaphragm and heart. In addition, gene expression rounds out the paradigm.
