Chimpanzee Kanako [PDF]

open access: yesPrimates, 2020
Chimpanzee societies generally show male philopatry and female dispersal. However, demographic data on wild chimpanzee societies from long-term study sites have revealed that some females give birth in their natal group (i.e., “remaining females”). Here, we report two remaining females in the M group in Mahale, Tanzania, and compare their cases with ...

Group dominance increases territory size and reduces neighbour pressure in wild chimpanzees [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
Territorial social species, including humans, compete between groups over key resources. This between-group competition has evolutionary implications on adaptations like in-group cooperation even with non-kin.

Analysis of chimpanzee history based on genome sequence alignments. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2008
Population geneticists often study small numbers of carefully chosen loci, but it has become possible to obtain orders of magnitude for more data from overlaps of genome sequences.

Comparing Predictors and Outcomes of Higher Allostatic Load across Zoo-Housed African Great Apes

open access: yesJournal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens, 2023
Stressors over the lifespan can contribute to physiological dysregulation, or allostatic load. Allostatic load has been studied in humans using allostatic load indices (ALIs) for over 25 years, but the same methods are rarely applied to other species. We

Signs of mood and anxiety disorders in chimpanzees.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundIn humans, traumatic experiences are sometimes followed by psychiatric disorders. In chimpanzees, studies have demonstrated an association between traumatic events and the emergence of behavioral disturbances resembling posttraumatic stress ...

Distinct Cytokine Profiles Correlate with Disease Severity and Outcome in Longitudinal Studies of Acute Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis D Virus Infection in Chimpanzees

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Historical studies conducted in chimpanzees gave us the opportunity to investigate the basis for the different severities of liver damage and disease outcome associated with infection with wild-type hepatitis B virus (HBV) versus a precore HBV mutant ...

Identification of novel neutralizing determinants for protection against HCV

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Identification of novel neutralizing determinants for protection against hepatitis C virus. Abstract Background and Aims HCV evasion of neutralizing antibodies (nAb) results in viral persistence and poses challenges to the development of an urgently needed vaccine.

Reflections of the social environment in chimpanzee memory: applying rational analysis beyond humans [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
In cognitive science, the rational analysis framework allows modelling of how physical and social environments impose information-processing demands onto cognitive systems.

Evaluation of IL-28B polymorphisms and serum IP-10 in hepatitis C infected chimpanzees.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In humans, clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with genetic variation near the IL-28B gene and the induction of interferon-stimulated genes, like IP-10. Also in chimpanzees spontaneous clearance of HCV is observed.
