CA 2601463

It is intended to provide a physiologically human-like animal model, by which the onset of drug-induced long QT syndrome can be evaluated at a high reproducibility, a method of constructing the animal model, and an evaluation method with the use of the same. An animal model with induced arrhythmia which is a monkey having been subjected to atrioventricular node ablation. It is preferable that the monkey is Macaca fascicularis. A method of constructing an animal model with induced arrhythmia which invovles the step of inserting an electrode catheter to the heart of a monkey and ablating an atrioventricular node with the catheter; and a method of evaluating the elongation in drug QT intervals characterized by comprising using the animal model as described above.

La présente invention prévoit un modèle animal à la physiologie semblable à celle de l'être humain, qui permet d'évaluer avec une reproductibilité élevée la survenance du syndrome des longs intervalles QT induit par des médicaments, un procédé de construction du modèle animal, et un procédé d'évaluation par l~utilisation dudit animal. Le modèle animal à arythmie induite qui est un singe qui a été soumis à l'ablation du nAEud auriculo-ventriculaire. De préférence, le singe est un Macaca fascicularis. L'invention concerne de plus la construction d'un modèle animal à arythmie induite qui comporte l'étape de l'introduction d'un cathéter à électrode dans le cAEur d'un singe et l'ablation, au moyen du cathéter, d'un nAEud auriculo-ventriculaire, ainsi qu'un procédé pour évaluer l'allongement dans les intervalles QT induits par des médicaments par l~utilisation du modèle animal décrit ci-dessus.
