Viral metagenomic analysis reveals potential biological hazards in non‐human primates in a zoo
The investigation identifies the presence of Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), Baboon endogenous virus (BAV), Human endogenous retrovirus (HERV), and Baboon endogenous virus (BaEV) in non‐human primates (NHPs) at the Zoo, indicating potential zoonotic threats.

Modulation by Morphine of Viral Set Point in Rhesus Macaques Infected with Simian Immunodeficiency Virus and Simian-Human Immunodeficiency Virus [PDF]
ABSTRACT Six rhesus macaques were adapted to morphine dependence by injecting three doses of morphine (5 mg/kg of body weight) for a total of 20 weeks. These animals along with six control macaques were infected intravenously with mixture of simian-human immunodeficiency virus KU-1B (SHIV KU-1B ), SHIV

Passive Immunization in the Prevention and Treatment of Viral Infections
The development of new technologies for generating monoclonal antibodies has made it possible to extend the use of monoclonal antibodies for controlling viral infections. Here, we discuss the advances in antibody cloning techniques and the current use of passive immunization both as a preventative measure and treatment of viral infection.

Genetic Evolution Between HIV‐1 Groups M and O: HIV‐1/MO Recombinant Forms
ABSTRACT HIV exhibits significant genetic diversity, with genetic recombination being a major evolutionary process. The co‐circulation of HIV‐1/M and HIV‐1/O variants has led to the description of 20 HIV‐1/M+O dual infections since 1998. Despite the genetic divergence between these variants, HIV‐1/M+O dual infections have resulted in the emergence of ...

Semen quality initially decreases post‐COVID‐19 but reverses after approximately 3 months in male with infertility, and the decreased semen quality was related to inflammatory reactions and fever . ABSTRACT The emergence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has triggered research into its impact on male reproductive health. However, studies exploring

Simian immunodeficiency virus DNA vaccine trial in macaques [PDF]
An experimental vaccine consisting of five DNA plasmids expressing different combinations and forms of simian immunodeficiency virus-macaque (SIVmac) proteins has been evaluated for the ability to protect against a highly pathogenic uncloned SIVmac251 challenge. One vaccine plasmid encoded nonreplicating SIVmac239 virus particles.

This study aims to investigate the variations in cytokine and electrolyte levels among rhesus macaques, cynomolgus monkeys, and assamese macaques in terms of species, sex, and age. By assessing 23 immune function indicators and 5 electrolyte indicators, significant differences in cytokine and electrolyte levels were detected across different monkey ...

Animal models of human herpesvirus infection
Human herpesvirus can infect humans and other vertebrates, primarily targeting the skin, mucous membranes, and neural tissues, thereby significantly impacting the health of both humans and animals. Animal models are crucial for studying virus pathogenesis, vaccine development, and drug testing.

Neurobiology of Simian and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Infections
Experimental and clinical evidence indicates that all lentiviruses of animals and humans are neurotropic and potentially neurovirulent. The prototypic animal lentiviruses, visna virus in sheep and caprine arthritis encephalitis virus in goats have been known for decades to induce neurologic disease.
