Ebola Species Thought to Be Harmless to Humans Can Sicken Pigs, Raising Alarm Bells In their new study, they gave cynomolgus and rhesus macaques a lethal dose of a variant of Zaire ebolavirus ...

Recently, researchers in Japan successfully used a nonviral system to introduce a transgene—that is, a gene that has been artificially inserted into an organism—into cynomolgus monkeys ...

To explore the effects of metformin, the team turned to Cynomolgus monkeys. These primates share a close biological link to humans, making them ideal for long-term aging studies. By focusing on this ...

Previous work uncovered the role of the complement system in neuroinflammation and synaptic loss in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The third component, C3, central in ...

The pill protected 80 per cent of the cynomolgus macaques and 100 per cent of the rhesus macaques, which are biologically closer to humans.

Primate species in research include rhesus macaques, long-tailed (a.k.a. crab-eating or cynomolgus) macaques, stump-tailed macaques, pig-tailed macaques, squirrel monkeys, owl monkeys, African green ...
