How many species of whipworms do we share? Whipworms from man and other primates form two phylogenetic lineages [PDF]
The whipworms, i.e. parasitic nematodes of the genus Trichuris Roederer, 1761, infect a variety of mammals. Apparently low diversity of primate-infecting species of Trichuris strongly contrasts with the high number of species described in other ...

Molecular evolution of key receptor genes in primates and non-human primates [PDF]
African primates remain an unexplored source of information required to complete the origin and evolution of many human pathogens. Current studies have shown the importance of several receptor human genes implicated in host resistance or susceptibility ...

Gastrointestinal parasites in non-human primates in zoological institutions in France
Gastrointestinal parasites are frequently encountered in captive non-human primates and infestation may have severe consequences on the animal’s health status. Most of these parasites are also transmissible to humans.

Inflammatory control in AIDS-resistant non human primates [PDF]
International audienceAfrican non human primates are natural hosts of SIV. The infection is non-pathogenic despite plasma viral load levels similar to those in HIV-1 infected humans and SIVmac-infected macaques (MAC) progressing towards AIDS.

A Study of Spontaneous Self-Injurious Behavior and Neuroimaging in Rhesus Macaques
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) demonstrates escalating prevalence among adolescents as a maladaptive behavior characterized by deliberate self-harm, yet its neurobiological underpinnings remain elusive.

Comparison of Non-human Primate versus Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes for Treatment of Myocardial Infarction. [PDF]
Non-human primates (NHPs) can serve as a human-like model to study cell therapy using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs). However, whether the efficacy of NHP and human iPSC-CMs is mechanistically similar remains unknown.

Non-Human Primate Models of Tuberculosis
ABSTRACT Among the animal models of tuberculosis (TB), the non-human primates, particularly rhesus macaques ( Macaca fascicularis ) and cynomolgus macaques ( Macaca mulatta ), share the greatest anatomical and physiological similarities with humans.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.
