ABSTRACT:
A process for transplanting into an immunodeficient mouse, which is deficient in T-cells and B-cells, human cells to form a chimeric mouse is provided. The transplanted human cells proliferate and thereby permit in vivo study of the human cells. The human cells are isolated from a human tissue source. The process comprises:
