Mice as a model for homeopathy research
Anisur Rahman Khuda-Bukhsh

Mice (Mus musculus) have been used as a model for homeopathy research  
in relation to cytotoxicity, genotoxicity and carcinogenesis in our  
laboratory for the last three decades. Initially, anti-radiation  
activities of several potentized homeopathic drugs were tested against  
suitable controls by taking into consideration several cytogenetic  
endpoints. Subsequently, anti-cytotoxic, anti-genotoxic and anti- 
oxidative stress effects of some homeopathic drugs were tested against  
several chemical toxic metalloids and metal compounds. Modern  
techniques including Western blot, immunofluorescence, electron  
microscopy, UV-spectroscopy, HPLC, FTIR, NMR, RT-PCR etc were deployed  
to understand the possible mechanisms and pathways of action of  
potentized homeopathic drugs. We hypothesise that one way by which  
potentized homeopathic drugs act is through regulatory action on gene  
expression.
