This study optimizes twin prime editing components to improve genome editing efficiency and accuracy for therapeutic applications in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3.

Hypothalamic neuronal activation in primates drives naturalistic goal-directed eating behavior

This study shows that activating hypothalamic GABAergic neurons in macaques increases naturalistic eating behavior and food motivation, with specific effects on palatable food.

Impaired hand dexterity function in a non-human primate model with chronic Parkinson's disease

This study evaluates hand dexterity function in a non-human primate Parkinson's disease model using a hand dexterity task and identifies correlations with tremor symptoms and dopamine transporter levels.
