Simian Immunodeficiency Virus Infections

  • Chapter
Nonhuman Primates I

Part of the book series: Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals ((LABORATORY))

Abstract

African species of nonhuman primates harboring persistent simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infections do not develop clinical illness or gross lesions. These species include: African green monkeys infected with SIVAGM, sooty mangabey monkeys infected with SIVSMM(δ), Sykes’ monkeys infected with SIVSYK; mandrills infected with SIVMND, and chimpanzees infected with SIVCMZ. The gross findings in various Asian species of macaque monkeys dying of naturally acquired or experimental SIVMAC, SIVSMM(δ), SIVMNE, or SIVSTM infection are variable and nonspecific.
