Characterization of tree shrew telomeres and telomerase
Journal of Genetics and Genomics, 2021The use of tree shrews as experimental animals for biomedical research is a new practice. Several recent studies suggest that tree shrews are suitable for studying cancers, including breast cancer, glioblastoma, lung cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the telomeres and the telomerase of tree shrews have not been studied to date.

Chromosomes of the tree shrews (Tupaiidae)
Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 1969Chromosomes from seven species of Tupaiidae, including <i>Tupaia glis</i>, <i>T. chinensis</i>, <i>T. longipes</i>, <i>T. montana</i>, <i>T. minor</i>, <i>T. palawanensis</i> and <i>Urogale everetti</i>, were analyzed.

Primates, 1973
Two types of hair changes occurred in an experimental group of captive tree shrews (Tupaia glis) living on an artificial diet in dark laboratory quarters. The most common variation in the fur consisted of a gradual type of hair loss resulting in a sparse coat and dry skin.

The retinal projections of the tree shrew and hedgehog
Brain Research, 1967Summary Retinal projections in the European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) are primarily to the contralateral superior colliculus, pretectal complex and pars dorsalis and ventralis of the lateral geniculate body. Ipsilateral projections to the same sites are also present but are sparse in comparison.

Adenoviral infection in infant tree shrews
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1984Summary An epizootic of fatal illness among infant common tree shrews (Tupaia glis) occurred in a research colony. Affected tree shrews were dehydrated, and ingested milk substitute remained in their stomachs for several hours without being digested. Twelve of 15 tree shrews born during a 3-month period died.

Spatial contrast sensitivity of the tree shrew
Vision Research, 1984Spatial contrast sensitivity functions (CSFs) were measured for 3 tree shrews. Our two-alternative forced-choice discrimination paradigm required the animals to discriminate a vertical sine-wave luminance grating from a homogeneous field of the same size (16 degrees) and mean luminance (35 cd/m2). Spatial frequencies tested ranged from 0.1 to 2.0 c/deg

Cortical localization in the tree shrew (Tupaia)
Brain Research, 1970Abstract Somatic sensory-motor area I, somatic sensory-motor area II, somatic motor-sensory area I and the areas of visual and auditory response were identified in the cerebral neocortex of the primitive placental mammal, Tupaia. Representation accorded with the general schema found in other small placentals and did not approximate more closely the ...

Nature, 1954
A COLONY of tree shrews, Tupaia glis (Diard), has been maintained at the University of Malaya for the past nineteen months, specimens having been obtained both from the Federation of Malaya and from Thailand. A total of fifty-five living animals has been received; the colony at the time of writing includes thirteen males and fourteen females.

Maternal behaviour and the effects of stress in tree shrews
Nature, 1974THE tree-shrews (family Tupaiidae), small squirrel-like mammals occurring throughout South-east Asia, are currently classified1 into two subfamilies: Ptilocercinae (nocturnal pen-tailed tree-shrews; genus Ptilocercus) and Tupaiinae (diurnal tree-shrews; genera Tupaia, Anathana, Dendrogale, Lyongale, Urogale). The overall systematic status of the family

The organization of somatosensory area II in tree shrews
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1981AbstractMicroelectrode multiunit recording methods were used to determine the somatotopic organization of the second somatosensory area, S‐II, in tree shrews. Neurons were activated by light tactile stimuli, and receptive fields were located on the contralateral body surface only.
