Variable responses of human and non-human primate gut microbiomes to a Western diet [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: The human gut microbiota interacts closely with human diet and physiology. To better understand the mechanisms behind this relationship, gut microbiome research relies on complementing human studies with manipulations of animal models ...

Anticarin β Inhibits Human Glioma Progression by Suppressing Cancer Stemness via STAT3
Frontiers in Oncology, 2021 Glioma is the most common form of malignant brain cancer. It is very difficult to cure malignant glioma because of the presence of glioma stem cells, which are a barrier to cure, have high tumorigenesis, associated with drug resistance, and responsible ...

Behavioral responses to injury and death in wild Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) [PDF]
, 2016 The wounding or death of a conspecific has been shown to elicit varied behavioral responses throughout thanatology. Recently, a number of reports have presented contentious evidence of epimeletic behavior towards the dying and dead among non-human ...

Ecotourism disturbances to non-human primates [PDF]
Zoological Research, 2013 In tandem with economic growth and rising living conditions, ecotourism has increasingly gained popularity among the Chinese public. Non-human primates, as charismatic animals and the closest relatives of human beings, have shown a strong affinity in attracting the general public and raising money, and for that reason a variety of monkey parks, valleys,

Cryobiology of non-human primate oocytes [PDF]
Human Reproduction, 1996 The responses to various stresses involved with cryopreservation protocols were investigated using non-human primate oocytes. Fluorescence microscopy was used to assess the status of the F-actin microfilament system of rhesus monkey oocytes after exposure to different concentrations of glycerol.

Primate energy input and the evolutionary transition to energy-dense diets in humans [PDF]
, 2017 Humans and other large-brained hominins have been proposed to increase energy turnover during their evolutionary history. Such increased energy turnover is plausible, given the evolution of energy-rich diets, but requires empirical confirmation.

An effort to use human-based exome capture methods to analyze chimpanzee and macaque exomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Non-human primates have emerged as an important resource for the study of human disease and evolution. The characterization of genomic variation between and within non-human primate species could advance the development of genetically defined non-human ...

Coding of self and other's future choices in dorsal premotor cortex during social interaction [PDF]
, 2018 Representing others’ intentions is central to primate social life. We explored the role of dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) in discriminating between self and others’ behavior while two male rhesus monkeys performed a non-match-to-goal task in a monkey-human
