Journal ArticleDOI

The Ontogeny of the Endocrine Pancreas in the Fetal/Newborn Baboon

TL;DR: The fetal endocrine pancreas has no prevalence of a α-β-δ-cell type with larger endocrine cell percent areas than adults and cells with mixed endocrine/exocrine phenotype occur during fetal development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trypanosoma cruzi in non-human primates with a history of stillbirths: a retrospective study (Papio hamadryas spp.) and case report (Macaca fascicularis)

TL;DR: This data indicates that sporadic transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi in mice is more common than in humans and experimental work has been conducted with mice, but not with non‐human primates (NHPs).
Journal ArticleDOI

Spontaneous squamous cell carcinomas in 13 baboons, a first report in a spider monkey, and a review of the non-human primate literature.

TL;DR: It is shown that squamous cell carcinoma is a neoplastic proliferation of epithelial cells undergoing squamous differentiation and represents a diagnostic challenge in non‐human primates (NHP), especially in baboons with perineal SCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spontaneous pathology of the baboon endocrine system

TL;DR: Research in animal models is critical to understanding endocrine pathology in humans and its role in cancer diagnosis and treatment is critical for informed treatment decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural pathology of the Baboon (Papio spp.).

TL;DR: The natural pathology of the baboon is not as well defined as other non‐human primates, but the useful animal models for biomedical research are useful and the natural pathology is not well defined.
