Product Introduction

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) encompasses chronic inflammatory conditions, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, which affect the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. These conditions result in persistent inflammation, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, rectal bleeding, and weight loss. Understanding the pathophysiology and testing potential therapeutics are critical for managing this debilitating disease.

 

Cause:

The etiology of IBD involves complex interactions between genetic predisposition, immune system dysregulation, and environmental factors. Models simulating inflammatory conditions within the GI tract are essential for unraveling the mechanisms driving disease progression and therapeutic response.

 

Advantages of Non-Human Primate (NHP) Models for IBD Research:

 

 

•Physiological and Anatomical Similarity: NHPs have a GI structure and immune system highly comparable to humans, ensuring translational relevance.
•Chronic Disease Modeling: The NHP model accurately replicates the chronic inflammation and tissue damage characteristic of human IBD.
•Behavioral and Clinical Observations: NHPs allow for detailed monitoring of clinical signs, such as altered stool consistency, body weight changes, and motor activities, in a manner reflective of human symptoms.

Advantages of NHP Models Compared to Mouse Models for Atopic Dermatitis Research:

 

•Enhanced Pathophysiological Insights: The immune and GI systems in NHPs align more closely with human biology than rodent models.
•Clinical Procedures: Techniques like colonoscopy and biopsy in NHPs provide direct visualization and assessment of mucosal damage, similar to human diagnostics.
•Longer Study Windows: NHP models support extended study periods, facilitating the evaluation of both acute and chronic phases of IBD.
 
 
 
 
 

 

Study design and clinical endpoints

Study design:

 

Prisys's IBD model is induced using a high-molecular-weight DSS solution administered orally daily over 28 days.
An acute colitis model involves high-dose DSS from Day 1 to Day 14, followed by therapeutic intervention.

 

Clinical endpoints:

 

 

•Colonoscopy assessments and biopsies for mucosal integrity.
•Colon length and weight measurements as indicators of inflammation severity.
•Histopathological examination of colon tissues to evaluate inflammatory and fibrotic changes.
