Elevated Rate of Fixation of Endogenous Retroviral Elements in Haplorhini TRIM5 and TRIM22 Genomic Sequences: Impact on Transcriptional Regulation [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 All genes in the TRIM6/TRIM34/TRIM5/TRIM22 locus are type I interferon inducible, with TRIM5 and TRIM22 possessing antiviral properties. Evolutionary studies involving the TRIM6/34/5/22 locus have predominantly focused on the coding sequence of the genes,

But how does it smell? An investigation of olfactory bulb size among living and fossil primates and other euarchontoglirans. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Analysis of cranial endocast data of 181 extant and 41 fossil species from Euarchontoglires shows that there was a reduction in olfactory bulb size in Crown Primates, but that there were also subsequent reductions in various other primate clades (Anthropoidea, Catarrhini, Platyrrhini, crown Cercopithecoidea, Hominoidea).

Life history of the most complete fossil primate skeleton: exploring growth models forDarwinius [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 Darwinius is an adapoid primate from the Eocene of Germany, and its only known specimen represents the most complete fossil primate ever found. Its describers hypothesized a close relationship to Anthropoidea, and using a Saimiri model estimated its age ...

Risk posed by the HPAI virus H5N1, Eurasian lineage goose/Guangdong clade 2.3.4.4b. genotype B3.13, currently circulating in the US. [PDF]
EFSA JAbstract The emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1), clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13 in U.S. dairy cattle marks a significant shift in the virus' host range and epidemiological profile. Infected cattle typically exhibit mild clinical signs, such as reduced milk production, mastitis and fever, with morbidity generally below 20% and

The orobasal organ (of Ackerknecht): A bizarre structure of the mammalian oral cavity
Journal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023 In 1912, Ackerknecht discovered and described an epithelial invagination behind the lower medial incisors in different mammalian species. This rudimentary structure might be a vestiagial organ which lost its physiological function. Named after its discoverer the “orobasal organ of Ackerknecht” is widely unknown in the scientific world.
