Microbiome Studies in Non-human Primates [PDF]
Current HIV/AIDS Reports, 2021 Observations of differing bacterial, intestinal microbiomes in people living with HIV have propelled interest in contributions of the microbiome to HIV disease. Non-human primate (NHP) models of HIV infection provide a controlled setting for assessing contributions of the microbiome by standardizing environmental confounders.

Myeloablative irradiation in non‐human primates [PDF]
Journal 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 ...

Tool use induces complex and flexible plasticity of human body representations [PDF]
, 2012 Plasticity of body representation fundamentally underpins human tool use. Recent studies have demonstrated remarkably complex plasticity of body representation in humans, showing that such plasticity: (1) occurs flexibly across multiple time-scales, and (

Neuroimmune Evasion of Zika Virus to Facilitate Viral Pathogenesis
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Zika virus (ZIKV), which preferentially targets neural stem and progenitor cells (NSCs) especially in developing brain, is causally associated with fetal microcephaly, intrauterine retardation, and other congenital malformations in humans. However, there

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 ...

Neuroimaging of Non-Human Primates [PDF]
The Open Neuroimaging Journal, 2011 Welcome to this special issue of the Open Neuroimaging Journal which focuses on neuroimaging studies of non-human primates (NHPs) as presented by leaders in the field. NHPs are important animal models because of their genetic, ontogenic, and physiological similarities to humans.

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,
