Several questions on public health impact have arisen from the discovery of a large focus of
the simian malaria parasite, Plasmodium knowlesi, in the human population. P. knowlesi …

Hybridization between two closely related species is a natural evolutionary process that
results in an admixture of previously isolated gene pools. The exchange of genes between …

Here, we present a new primate phylogeny inferred from molecular supermatrix analyses of
size 42kb containing 70% of missing data, and representing 75% of primate species …

Fossil evidence indicates that numerous catarrhine clades of African origin expanded or
shifted their ranges into Eurasia, among them macaques Macaca Lacépède, 1799 …

The second edition of this text provides a comprehensive, up-to-date review of the use of
nonhuman primates in biomedical research. The publication emphasizes the biology and …

Favipiravir is an RNA polymerase inhibitor that showed strong antiviral efficacy in vitro and
in small-animal models of several viruses responsible for hemorrhagic fever (HF), including …

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) gene products control the repertoire of T cell
responses that an individual may create against pathogens and foreign tissues. This text will …

Abstract Background Long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) are an important model
species in biomedical research and reliable knowledge about their evolutionary history is …

There are currently no nonhuman primate models with fully defined major histocompatibility
complex (MHC) class II genetics. We recently showed that six common MHC haplotypes …

Background The genetic composition of cynomolgus macaques used in biomedical
research is not as well‐characterized as that of rhesus macaques. Methods Populations of …
