Automated high-content live animal drug screening using C. elegans expressing the aggregation prone serpin α1-antitrypsin Z.
The development of preclinical models amenable to live animal bioactive compound screening is an attractive approach to discovering effective pharmacological therapies for disorders caused by misfolded and aggregation-prone proteins. In general, however, live animal drug screening is labor and resou...
