Nonhuman Primate Models of Respiratory Disease: Past, Present, and Future. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The respiratory system consists of an integrated network of organs and structures that primarily function for gas exchange. In mammals, oxygen and carbon dioxide are transmitted through a complex respiratory tract, consisting of the nasal passages ...

Tauopathy promotes spinal cord-dependent production of toxic amyloid-beta in transgenic monkeys

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
Tauopathy, characterized by the hyperphosphorylation and accumulation of the microtubule-associated protein tau, and the accumulation of Aβ oligomers, constitute the major pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease.

Cloning of a gene-edited macaque monkey by somatic cell nuclear transfer

open access: yesNational Science Review, 2019
Cloning of macaque monkeys by somatic cell nucleus transfer (SCNT) allows the generation of monkeys with uniform genetic backgrounds that are useful for the development of non-human primate models of human diseases.

Mass spectrometry-based identification and whole-genome characterisation of the first pteropine orthoreovirus isolated from monkey faeces in Thailand

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2018
Background The pteropine orthoreovirus (PRV) was isolated from monkey (Macaca fascicularis) faecal samples collected from human-inhabited areas in Lopburi Province, Thailand. These samples were initially obtained to survey for the presence of hepatitis E

A CRISPR monkey model unravels a unique function of PINK1 in primate brains

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2019
Genetically modified rodent models have been valuable for investigating the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease (PD). Based on the fact that mutations in the PINK1 gene cause autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism, a

Functional disruption of the dystrophin gene in rhesus monkey using CRISPR/Cas9.

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2015
CRISPR/Cas9 has been used to genetically modify genomes in a variety of species, including non-human primates. Unfortunately, this new technology does cause mosaic mutations, and we do not yet know whether such mutations can functionally disrupt the ...
