Homologous recombination-mediated targeted integration in monkey embryos using TALE nucleases
Background Non-human primate (NHP) models can closely mimic human physiological functions and are therefore highly valuable in biomedical research. Genome editing is now developing rapidly due to the precision and efficiency offered by engineered site ...

Modeling the Searching Behavior of Social Monkeys [PDF]
We discuss various features of the trajectories of spider monkeys looking for food in a tropical forest, as observed recently in an extensive {\it in situ} study. Some of the features observed can be interpreted as the result of social interactions.

Reprogramming Huntington monkey skin cells into pluripotent stem cells.
Induced pluripotent Huntington's disease monkey stem cells (rHD-iPSCs) were established by the overexpression of rhesus macaque transcription factors (Oct4, Sox2, and Klf4) in transgenic Huntington's monkey skin fibroblasts.

Novel anti-tumour necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR1) domain antibody prevents pulmonary inflammation in experimental acute lung injury. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic cytokine with both injurious and protective functions, which are thought to diverge at the level of its two cell surface receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2.

Background Corneal transplantation is the only way to treat serious corneal diseases caused by corneal endothelial dysfunction. However, the shortage of donor corneal tissues and human corneal endothelial cells (HCECs) remains a worldwide challenge.

The visual world is imaged on the retinas of our eyes. However, "seeing"' is not a result of neural functions within the eyes but rather a result of what the brain does with those images.

Bearded capuchin monkeys as a model for Alzheimer’s disease
AbstractThe absence of a natural animal model is one of the main challenges in Alzheimer’s disease research. Despite the challenges of using nonhuman primates in studies, these animals can bridge mouse models and humans, as nonhuman primates are phylogenetically closer to humans and can spontaneously develop AD-type pathology.

Monkey Optimization System with Active Membranes: A New Meta-heuristic Optimization System [PDF]
Optimization techniques, used to get the optimal solution in search spaces, have not solved the time-consuming problem. The objective of this study is to tackle the sequential processing problem in Monkey Algorithm and simulating the natural parallel behavior of monkeys.

Adaptive coordination of working-memory and reinforcement learning in non-human primates performing a trial-and-error problem solving task [PDF]
Accumulating evidence suggest that human behavior in trial-and-error learning tasks based on decisions between discrete actions may involve a combination of reinforcement learning (RL) and working-memory (WM). While the understanding of brain activity at stake in this type of tasks often involve the comparison with non-human primate neurophysiological ...
