Unprecedented polymorphism of Mhc-DRB region configurations in rhesus macaques.
The rhesus macaque is an important model in preclinical transplantation research and for the study of chronic and infectious diseases, and so extensive knowledge of its MHC (MhcMamu) is needed. Nucleotide sequencing of exon 2 allowed the detection of 68 Mamu-DRB alleles. Although most alleles belong to loci/lineages that have human equivalents, identical Mhc-DRB alleles are not shared between h...
متن کاملUnparalleled complexity of the MHC class I region in rhesus macaques.
The highly polymorphic gene products of the classical MHC class I genes in humans (HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-C) play a critical role in the immune defense against intracellular infections. Because non-human primates are important models for AIDS vaccine research, rhesus monkeys from a thoroughly pedigreed and serotyped colony were subjected to full-length cDNA analysis of MHC class I gene transcrip...
متن کاملGenetic makeup of the DR region in rhesus macaques: gene content, transcripts, and pseudogenes.
In the human population, five major HLA-DRB haplotypes have been identified, whereas the situation in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) is radically different. At least 30 Mamu-DRB region configurations, displaying polymorphism with regard to number and combination of DRB loci present per haplotype, have been characterized. Until now, Mamu-DRB region genes have been studied mainly by genomic seq...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولNeonatal Imitation in Rhesus Macaques
The emergence of social behaviors early in life is likely crucial for the development of mother-infant relationships. Some of these behaviors, such as the capacity of neonates to imitate adult facial movements, were previously thought to be limited to humans and perhaps the ape lineage. Here we report the behavioral responses of infant rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) to the following human fac...
