Insights from engraftable immunodeficient mouse models of hyperinsulinaemia

Abstract Hyperinsulinaemia, obesity and dyslipidaemia are independent and collective risk factors for many cancers. Here, the long-term effects of a 23% Western high-fat diet (HFD) in two immunodeficient mouse strains (NOD/SCID and Rag1 −/−) suitable for engraftment with human-derived tissue xenogra...
