As per available report about 10 Journals,15 Conferences, 14 National Symposiums and 41 open access articles published on the animal models. An animal model is a living, non-human animal used during the research and investigation of human disease, for the purpose of better understanding the disease process without the added risk of harming an actual human.

Animal models serving in research may have an existing, inbred or induced disease or injury that is similar to a human condition. These test conditions are often termed as animal models of disease.

Although humans and animals (technically “non-human animals”) may look different, at a physiological and anatomical level they are remarkably similar. Animals, from mice to monkeys, have the same organs (heart, lungs, brain etc.) and organ systems (respiratory, cardiovascular, nervous systems etc.) which perform the same functions in pretty much the same way. The similarity means that nearly 90% of the veterinary medicines that are used to treat animals are the same as, or very similar to, those developed to treat human patients. There are minor differences, but these are far outweighed by the similarities. The differences can give important clues about diseases and how they might be treated – for instance, if we knew why the mouse with muscular dystrophy suffers less muscle wasting than human patients, this might lead to a treatment for this debilitating and fatal disorder.

Scope and Importance

The animal chosen will usually meet a determined taxonomic equivalency to humans, so as to react to disease or its treatment in a way that resembles human physiology as needed. Many drugs, treatments and cures for human diseases have been developed with the use of animal models. Animal models representing specific taxonomic groups in the research and study of developmental processes are also referred to as model organisms. There are three main types of animal models: Homologous, Isomorphic and Predictive. Homologous animals have the same causes, symptoms and treatment options as would humans who have the same disease. Isomorphic animals share the same symptoms and treatments, only. Predictive models are similar to a particular human disease in only a couple of aspects. However, these are useful in isolating and making predictions about mechanisms of a set of disease features.

Market Analysis

The global mice model market is segmented on the basis of type, technology, disease, and mice model services. By type, the market comprises of inbred, outbred, knockout, conditioned/surgically modified, hybrid/congenic, and spontaneous mutant mice. A buyout firm could also buy the entire company in a deal worth $60 a share to gain a business with the biggest portion of the research animal market and then sell off the testing unit, according to William Blair. Charles River controls about 50 percent of the $1.4 billion market for so-called animal research models worldwide, according to an estimate from Citigroup.

Still, leveraged buyout firms could be wary of paying up for Charles River because it has $659 million in net debt, more relative to its market value than any of its closest rivals, said Garen Sarafian a New York-based analyst at Citigroup.
