The Baboon as a Model to Study Human Health and Complex Disease

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 9, September 2026.
Baboons remain underappreciated as models of human biology and disease offering a distinct combination of biological and practical properties. In this review, we evaluate the baboon as a model for human complex diseases and make the case for broader use of baboons in translational research.

Loss of Neutrophils and SLPI Reshapes Early Mucosal Inflammatory Responses During Intranasal Vaccination

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 9, September 2026.
Intranasal vaccination induces pulmonary neutrophil accumulation and SLPI release, accompanied by changes in soluble mediators associated with tissue remodelling, coagulation, and total IgA. ABSTRACT Vaccines delivered via the nasal route have attracted increasing attention for their capacity to engage the mucosal immune system at the primary site of ...
