NON-INVASIVE EVALUATION OF PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSE IN A MAMMAL
First Claim
1. A panel of expression cassettes, comprising a first expression cassette comprising a first control element derived from a first stressinducible gene, said control element operable linked to sequences encoding a first light generating polypeptide, and a second expression cassette comprising a second control element derived from a second stress-inducible gene, said second control element operable linked to sequences encoding a second light generating polypeptide.

Abstract
The present invention relates to panels of reporter expression cassettes and the generation of transgenic non-human animals, wherein said reporter expression cassettes have selected control elements operable linked to reporter genes. The invention includes methods of use thereof for the identification and characterization of the effects of compounds administered to the live transgenic non-human animals.
