Evidence linking APOBEC3B genesis and evolution of innate immune antagonism by gamma-herpesvirus ribonucleotide reductases

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Viruses have evolved diverse mechanisms to antagonize host immunity such as direct inhibition and relocalization of cellular APOBEC3B (A3B) by the ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) of Epstein-Barr virus. Here, we investigate the mechanistic conservation and

Pancreatitis in Two New World Monkeys [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Pathology, 1980
There have been few reports of pancreatitis in non-human primates, all in Old World monkeys. One case of chronic pancreatitis in a female yellow baboon (Papio cynocephalus) was reported initially as a pancreatic adenocarcinoma but later was reclassified as inflammatory [6]. Two recent cases of necrotizing pancreatitis in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta)

SEROLOGICAL DETECTION OF HEPATITIS A VIRUS IN FREE-RANGING NEOTROPICAL PRIMATES (Sapajus spp., Alouatta caraya) FROM THE PARANÁ RIVER BASIN, BRAZIL

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2016
Nonhuman primates are considered as the natural hosts of Hepatitis A virus (HAV), as well as other pathogens, and can serve as natural sentinels to investigate epizootics and endemic diseases that are of public health importance. During this study, blood
