They use them usually to see what the reaction is. Rats are very beneficial to genetic studies, but I think they are often times used too much. I do not like animal testing, but I don't think humans should be used either & to make progress and discoveries, sometimes you have to things you don't want to. Scientist's do what they have to for the better of the whole.
