Rare disease mouse models are genetically engineered laboratory mice that accurately replicate specific genetic mutations responsible for human orphan diseases. These models are indispensable tools for biomedical research, as they provide a physiologically relevant in vivo system to study disease mechanisms, validate therapeutic targets, and evaluate the efficacy and safety of potential treatments prior to clinical trials. Given the small patient populations and ethical constraints of human studies, these models are critical for advancing research on conditions that individually affect fewer than 1 in 2,000 people in the EU (or fewer than 200,000 individuals in the U.S.).
