چکیده
Oral malignancy is rare in chimpanzees. A 34-year-old female chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) at Kumamoto Sanctuary, Japan, had developed it. Treatment is technically difficult for chimpanzees while malignant neoplasm is seemingly rising in captive populations. Widespread expert discussion, guidelines for treatment, especially for great apes in terminal stages is urgently needed.

Comparative genomics of human stem cell factor (SCF)
Stem cell factor (SCF) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. In the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of SCF was performed in Humanoids using bioinformatics tools including NCBI-BLAST, MEGA6, and JBrowse. Our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by NCB...
متن کاملEn Bloc Removal of the Mandible, the Masticatory Muscles and the Mandibular Nerve in the Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes, Blumenbach 1799), with a Review and Critique of the Methods Used to Expose the Trigeminal Musculature in Derived Primates
The detailed protocol of the en bloc removal of the mandible, the muscles supplied by the mandibular nerve tree and the maxillary artery is described in the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes). This new method allows integrated observations of the masticatory muscles, their ontogenetic associates and the specific branches of the mandibular nerve that supply them. The topographic relationships of the m...
