ABSTRACT:
A non-human chimeric animal is obtained by transplanting a non-human mammal host having a T cell deficiency with a human liver tissue preparation or with a liver tissue preparation from a non-human animal capable of being infected by the hepatitis virus (HV). The non-human chimeric animal is useful as an HV model for evaluating anti-HV therapy and prophylaxis.
