How many human researches guinea pig uses in 2018

YOU KNOW ?

Guinea pig biological similar to human beings, which make them use in many field of human researches.

Guinea pig tissue and organs are extensively use in research to develope new medicine.

LIKE - Beta blocker to treat high blood pressure and intestinal ulcers

Anti- nausea drug consist (naturally occurring pain killer substance) enkephalins.

USES-

IN ALLERGIES AND RESPIRATORY DISEASES-

guinea pig airways are sensitive to allergence so it has been widely use in asthma studies .

The inhaled medications that the mainstays of asthma treatment ( orally active- drug) montilukast, also use to treat a vaccine against anthrax,recent new medicine to treat drug resistant tuberculosis.

IN INFECTIOUSDISEASES-

Sensitivity of guinea pigs regarding some infectious diseases are similar to immune difference system of humans ,

LIKE- mycobecteriam tuberculous and lectospira icteroids .

IN HEARING-

The structure of guinea pigs ears similar to that of human, means hearing range are also similar,

Hair cells are the sensory cell of the auditory system, these cells don't re- grow when damage, so first successful attampt to regenerate hair cell in the inner ear of a mammals , announced in 2003 ,achieved in guinea pigs.

IN NUTRITIONAL RESEARCH-
Guinea pigs requiring vit C, folic acid, thiamine, argenine, & potassium in their diet. They also carried most of their plasma cholesterol in low density protein, which make them useful in nutrition studies.

IN SAFETY TESTING-
The long gestration period 59- 72 days, and mature nervous system at birth means that guinea pigs are important in safety testing, particularly to prevent birth defence. However, similar to their immune system, their skin is more sensitive, so guinea pig are widespread use for allergic skin reactions.

Animal organs for human transplantation: how close are we ?

You know about xenotransplantation Solid organ transplantation ,by most measure a phenomenal success. One potential solution to organ availability crises is the use of animal as organ donar for humans ( xenotransplantation). Organ transplantation has been one of the success stories of the latter part of 20th century, this field now solidly entrenched in modern medical therapy. Since last decades, thousands of the patients received new kidneys, livers, heart and other organs( lung, pancreas, and intestine ) routinely transplanted, clinical results of these interventions have meant the restoration of meaningful, protective and active lives to recipients of all organs. Vexingly, the transplant community has not been able to meet the demand for donar organ, to reduced the overcome finding a alternative, more plenityful supply of replacement organs for human transplantation. THE IDEAL DONOR ANIMAL A long list emerging when we co...

Orthopaedic stem cell therapy overview 2018

Stem cell therapy use to treat orthopaedic conditions. Stem cell are cells that have capability to self renew by dividing and to develope in to more mature and specialised cells. It's can be unipotent , multinational , pluripotent or totipotent depending on the noumber of cell type to which they can give rise. Several types of stem cells that can be use for different purposes. Embryonic stem cells Non embryonic stem cells Induced pluripotent stem cells Cord blood stem cells Amniotic fluid stem cells Repair of damaged tissue by using healing power of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) found in other body parts or from donar amblical card tissue . Theses MSCs have ability to regenerate worn or damaged cartilage , repair damaged muscles & ligaments, control inflammation and rejuvenate aging cell population . Now a days these therapy use to trea...

What is snake venom and how its use as medicine

SNAKE VENOM USE AS A MEDICINE , Snake venom is highly modified parotid salivary gland secretion that secrets zootoxines. Venoms contain more than 20 different compounds, mostly proteins, polypeptide, enzymes, and various other substances with toxins and other lethal proterties serve to immobilize and digestion of prey animal and defence against threats. SIX MAZER MEDICAL USES FOR THE SNAKE VENOM: 1) TREATING CANCER - venom from rattlesnake contain a chemical called crotoxin, it only work on particular kinds of cell (blood and muscles). Research Harnessed the unique combination of targeting and toxicity in crotoxin to creat a cancer treatment, called CB24. 2) REDUCE BLOOD PRESSURE- The venom of the Brazilian pitviper contain a protein that disrupt the angiotensin - converting enzyme (ACE), which rises blood pressu...
