Abstract excerpt
Cynomolgus macaques are a standard species used preclinically for evaluating efficacy and toxicity of therapeutic drug candidates and vaccines. However, findings from preclinical studies conducted in cynomolgus macaques are often highly variable, which may in part be attributed to genetic diversity. In this study, genetic polymorphisms were identified in 49 genes of the immune system using DNA isolated from 40...
