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 ...

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.

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

Localization of b-defensin genes in non human primates
European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009 Defensins are a family of host defence peptides that play an important role in the innate immunity of mammalian and avian species. In humans, four b-defensins have been isolated so far, corresponding to the products of the genes DEFB1 (h-BD1, GenBank ...
