Services within cardiovascular diseases

Investigate the efficacy of your potential novel agents in
rodent models of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

AngII-PE mouse

  • Lean male C57BL/6J mice on normal chow diet.
  • Co-Infusion with angiotensin II and α-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine for a total of 28 days.
  • Cardiac hypertrophy with systolic and diastolic dysfunction including reduced ejection fraction.
  • Extensive perivascular/interstitial myocardial fibrosis.
  • Therapeutic evaluation of drug efficacy.

DIO-LDLR-KO mouse

  • Male LDLR-/- mice on western diet.
  • Dyslipidemia with hypercholesterolemia (LDL).
  • Widespread atherosclerotic plaque formation.
  • 3D imaging pipeline for detailed characterizing of plaque volume and vascular wall inflammation in specific anatomical regions of vasculature.
