Metabolic disease models
Studies indicate that the rising incidence rates of metabolic diseases currently represent the primary risk affecting global health. JOINN's metabolic disease research team has extensive experience in the preclinical development of drugs targeting metabolic disorders and has established disease models for metabolism-related conditions, including obesity, diabetes and its complications, hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis, hyperuricemia, and gout. These models support comprehensive evaluations of therapeutic interventions in metabolic disease research.
