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,

Defining a core breath profile for healthy, non-human primates

Scientific Reports
Non-human primates remain the most useful and reliable pre-clinical model for many human diseases. Primate breath profiles have previously distinguished healthy animals from diseased, including non-human primates.

Ostension, pragmatics, and presumptions of relevance : an investigation of communication cognition in non-human primates [PDF]

, 2023
A prominent debate in the study of non-human primate cognition concerns their level of cognitive engagement with communication, and especially their capacity for pragmatic and ostensive communication. I investigated this question across four experiments,

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.

The non‐human primate model of tuberculosis [PDF]

Journal of Medical Primatology, 2012
AbstractNon‐human primates (NHPs) are used to model human disease owing to their remarkably similar genomes, physiology, and immune systems. Recently, there has been an increased interest in modeling tuberculosis (TB) in NHPs. Macaques are susceptible to infection with different strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), producing the full spectrum ...

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.
