Rapid expansion of aged population is predicted worldwide. To cope with problems expected from this situation and extend the period of active and healthy life of people as much as possible, it is important to elucidate not only the biological mechanisms of "aging", but also the etiology of various "age-related diseases". To attain this goal, extensive studies using excellent animal models are indispensable. Senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) is a series of inbred mouse strains that includes SAMP1, SAMP6, SAMP8, SAMP10, and SAMR1. SAMP strains exhibit accelerated senescence and short lifespan. In addition, each strain shows specific age-related disease phenotypes which are similar to symptoms observed in humans, such as senile amyloidosis (SAMP1), senile osteoporosis (SAMP6), and age-dependent deficits in learning and memory (SAMP8), making SAM mice useful for an aging research. In this review, we introduce the characteristics and application of SAM in geriatrics and aging biology.
