Versatility of Collagen Antibody Induced Arthritis (CAIA)
Unlike the Collagen-Induced Arthritis (CIA) model which requires a restricted MHC haplotype thereby limiting the available strains, the CAIA model using ArthritoMab™ Antibody Cocktail can be used in various strains including CIA-resistant, gene-knockouts and transgenic animals.
Commonly used strains in the CAIA model:
-
- DBA/1
- Balb/c
- B10.RIII
- B10.Q
- C57Bl/6
