Optimization of Milk Substitutes for the Artificial Rearing of Chinese Tree Shrews (Tupaia belangeri chinensis)

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
The Chinese tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri chinensis) has the potential to replace the use of non-human primates in biomedical research. To increase the availability of this species, we have undertaken the ambitious task of establishing inbred lines of the

Myeloablative irradiation in non‐human primates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Primatology, 2009
AbstractPurpose  We used total body irradiation (TBI) as conditioning for cord blood transplantation studies in pigtailed macaques. In these studies, different doses of TBI were explored to obtain optimal myelosuppression with acceptable radiation‐related side effects.Methods  Four macaques received TBI ranging from 800 to 1320 cGy, followed by ...

An Open Resource for Non-human Primate Optogenetics

open access: yesNeuron, 2020
Optogenetics has revolutionized neuroscience in small laboratory animals, but its effect on animal models more closely related to humans, such as non-human primates (NHPs), has been mixed. To make evidence-based decisions in primate optogenetics, the scientific community would benefit from a centralized database listing all attempts, successful and ...
