Abstract excerpt
Nonhuman primates are the closest animal models to humans with respect to genetics and physiology. Consequently, a critical component of immunogenetics research relies on drawing inferences from the cynomolgus macaque to inform human trials. Despite the conserved organization of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) between cynomolgus macaques and humans, MHC genotyping of cynomolgus macaques is challenging...
