Abstract knowledge in the broken-string problem : evidence from nonhuman primates and pre-schoolers [PDF]

, 2014
There was funding from the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851.There is still large controversy about whether abstract knowledge of physical problems is uniquely human.

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Blood RNA Biomarker Signatures for Early Diagnosis and Prognosis in Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke: The IBIS‐CT1 Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the expression of nine blood RNA biomarkers in a clinical trial based on genes previously identified in an experimental monkey model of stroke for diagnosis feasibility and prognostication. Methods IBIS‐CT1 was a prospective longitudinal study enrolling patients with ischemic stroke (IS) or intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH ...

Forward and reverse genomic screens enhance the understanding of phenotypic variation in a large Chinese rhesus macaque cohort

Nature Communications
Combining genotype and phenotype data promises to greatly increase the value of macaque as biomedical models for human disease. Here we launch the Macaque Biobank project by deeply sequencing 919 captive Chinese rhesus macaques (CRM) while assessing 52 ...

Non-human primate pluripotent stem cells for the preclinical testing of regenerative therapies

Neural Regeneration Research, 2022
Non-human primates play a key role in the preclinical validation of pluripotent stem cell-based cell replacement therapies. Pluripotent stem cells used as advanced therapy medical products boost the possibility to regenerate tissues and organs affected ...

Molecular cytotaxonomy of primates by chromosomal in situ suppression hybridization [PDF]

, 1990
A new strategy for analyzing chromosomal evolution in primates is presented using chromosomal in situ suppression (CISS) hybridization. Biotin-labeled DNA libraries from flow-sorted human chromosomes are hybridized to chromosome preparations of ...

Global Rather Than Vertical‐Selective Saccadic Abnormalities in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To test whether vertical saccades are preferentially affected in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Methods PSP patients (n = 24) were compared to age‐matched controls (n = 94) and two degenerative groups (Alzheimer's disease, n = 20; Lewy body disease, n = 50).

Non-Human Primate Models of Tuberculosis

Microbiology Spectrum, 2016
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.
