Glossary Severe Combined Immunodeficient Mice

laboratory mice with a genetic mutation causing a nonfunctional immune system

Severe Combined Immunodeficient (SCID) mice are laboratory mice that lack a functional immune system due to a genetic mutation. This makes them highly valuable in scientific research, particularly for studying human diseases, testing new drugs, and conducting cancer research, as they can accept human cells and tissues without rejecting them.
