🐁 Mouse models are typically used in studies on the microbiota-gut-brain axis -- but can primate models help accelerate what scientists know? Check out this first-of-its-kind study on the behavioral effects of depleting the gut microbiota in marmosets. foodforhealth.unl.edu/new-pr…

Our new germ-free mouse study is out, led by Dimitri Sidiropoulos, @monkey_doc, and Purna Kashyap, showing primatization of mice, and that wild primate microbes reduce obesity in mice. animalmicrobiome.biomedcentr…

Wild primate microbiomes prevent weight gain in germ-free mice

Animal Microbiome - The gut microbiome harbors trillions of bacteria that play a major role in dietary nutrient extraction and host metabolism. Metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes are...

Captivity Makes Monkey Microbiomes More Human-Like

Our microbiomes winnowed when we swapped hunting and gathering for cities—and a few months in a zoo will do the same to a monkey.
