Sjögren’s Syndrome

Sjögren's syndrome(SS) is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the exocrine glands. It particularly targets the salivary and lacrimal glands, resulting in dry mouth (xerostomia) and dry eyes (xerophthalmia). Sjögren's can also involve other organs and systems, causing various symptoms such as joint pain, fatigue, and difficulties in swallowing.

Advantages

Our Advantages

Comprehensive Model Portfolio

We provide a diverse collection of Sjögren’s model types, including spontaneous models and induced models

Diverse Animal Models with Distinct Pathogenic Mechanisms

Sjögren’s models exhibit clear and diverse pathogenic mechanisms driven by B cells, T cells, or STING pathway activation, rendering them suitable for preclinical studies targeting distinct drug mechanisms of action (MoAs).

Panel A NOD mice exhibited reduced salivary flow rate and tear production compared with the BALB/c strain. Serum levels of anti-SSA antibody, anti-dsDNA IgG, and total IgG were elevated in NOD mice relative to BALB/c mice.

Panel B Monocytes, CD3⁺ cells, plasma cells, Th1, Th17 and Treg cells were increased in 22-week-old NOD mice compared with BALB/c mice.

Panel C HE histological score of the submandibular gland was increased in 22-week-old NOD mice

Statistical analysis was performed using one‑way ANOVA, and all data are presented as mean ± SEM. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001，****p<0.0001
