Abstract
Methods and compositions for preparing a mouse model of an inflammatory skin condition are disclosed. The methods involve administering donor lymphocytes to a recipient immune deficient mouse to induce the inflammatory skin response. The mouse models are useful for testing the efficacy of a therapeutic agent for treating the inflammatory skin condition. In particular, the mouse models are useful for screening therapeutic agents for treating human psoriasis.
