An Assessment Of The Use Of Chimpanzees In Hepatitis C Research Past, Present And Future: 1. Validity Of The Chimpanzee Model, Jarrod Bailey
An Assessment Of The Use Of Chimpanzees In Hepatitis C Research Past, Present And Future: 1. Validity Of The Chimpanzee Model, Jarrod Bailey
Jarrod Bailey, PhD
The USA is the only significant user of chimpanzees in biomedical research in the world, since many countries have banned or limited the practice due to substantial ethical, economic and scientific concerns. Advocates of chimpanzee use cite hepatitis C research as a major reason for its necessity and continuation, in spite of supporting evidence that is scant and often anecdotal. This paper examines the scientific and ethical issues surrounding chimpanzee hepatitis C research, and concludes that claims of the necessity of chimpanzees in historical and future hepatitis C research are exaggerated and unjustifiable, respectively. The chimpanzee model has several major …
An Assessment Of The Use Of Chimpanzees In Hepatitis C Research Past, Present And Future: 2. Alternative Replacement Methods, Jarrod Bailey
An Assessment Of The Use Of Chimpanzees In Hepatitis C Research Past, Present And Future: 2. Alternative Replacement Methods, Jarrod Bailey
Jarrod Bailey, PhD
The use of chimpanzees in hepatitis C virus (HCV) research was examined in the report associated with this paper (1: Validity of the Chimpanzee Model), in which it was concluded that claims of past necessity of chimpanzee use were exaggerated, and that claims of current and future indispensability were unjustifiable. Furthermore, given the serious scientific and ethical issues surrounding chimpanzee experimentation, it was proposed that it must now be considered redundant — particularly in light of the demonstrable contribution of alternative methods to past and current scientific progress, and the future promise that these methods hold. This paper builds on …
Regulation Of Phosphatidylinositol 4-Kinase Iii Alpha Complex Formation In B Cells And Its Role In Autoantibody Production, Michaela M. Sangillo Ms
Regulation Of Phosphatidylinositol 4-Kinase Iii Alpha Complex Formation In B Cells And Its Role In Autoantibody Production, Michaela M. Sangillo Ms
All Student Scholarship
The plasma membrane protein Efr3b, the Tetratricopeptide domain repeat 7 (Ttc7), and the kinase phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase III alpha (PI4KIIIa) are found to form a complex a the plasma membrane. This complex is thought to play a role regulating the PI4P pools at the plasma membrane, which is imperative to membrane identity and vesicle transport.
