Aspects of tree shrew consolidated sleep structure resemble human sleep
Communications Biology, 2021 Dimanico et al investigated sleep in tree shrews using electrophysiological recordings and compared it to equivalent read-outs in rats and humans. They reported that there was considerable homology of sleep structure between humans and tree shrews ...

A Novel Tree Shrew Model of Diabetic Retinopathy [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 Existing animal models with rod-dominant retinas have shown that hyperglycemia injures neurons, but it is not yet clearly understood how blue cone photoreceptors and retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) deteriorate in patients because of compromised insulin tolerance. In contrast, northern tree shrews (Tupaia Belangeri), one of the closest living relatives of

Neurochemical Characterization of the Tree Shrew Dorsal Striatum [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2011 The striatum is a major component of the basal ganglia and is associated with motor and cognitive functions. Striatal pathologies have been linked to several disorders, including Huntington's, Tourette's syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and schizophrenia.

Establishment of the tree shrew as an alcohol-induced Fatty liver model for the study of alcoholic liver diseases. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Currently, the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver diseases (ALDs) is not clear. As a result, there is no effective treatment for ALDs. One limitation is the lack of a suitable animal model for use in studying ALDs.

Preservation of Hippocampal Neuron Numbers and Hippocampal Subfield Volumes in Behaviorally Characterized Aged Tree Shrews [PDF]
, 2004 Aging is associated with a decreased ability to store and retrieve information. The hippocampal formation plays a critical role in such memory processes, and its integrity is affected during normal aging.
