    Abstract Animals provide food and other critical resources to most of the global population. As such, diseases of animals can cause dire consequences, especially disease with high rates of morbidity or mortality. Transboundary animal diseases (TADs) are highly contagious or transmissible, epidemic diseases, with the potential to spread rapidly across the globe and the potential to cause substantial socioeconomic and public health consequences. Transboundary animal diseases can threaten the global food supply, reduce the availability of non-food animal products, or cause the loss of human productivity or life. Further, TADs result in socioeconomic consequences from costs of control or preventative measures, and from trade restrictions. A greater understanding of the transmission, spread, and pathogenesis of these diseases is required. Further work is also needed to improve the efficacy and cost of both diagnostics and vaccines. This review aims to give a broad overview of 17 TADs, providing researchers and veterinarians with a current, succinct resource of salient details regarding these significant diseases. For each disease, we provide a synopsis of the disease and its status, species and geographic areas affected, a summary of in vitro or in vivo research models, and when available, information regarding prevention or treatment.

    Abstract Incidence of Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, is rising in some global human populations despite high vaccination rates, and significant research is underway to address the issue. Baboons are an established model for pertussis research, but like many mammals, they can be naturally infected with Bordetella bronchiseptica. Because B. bronchiseptica interferes with B. pertussis research, it must be excluded from baboons under consideration for enrollment in pertussis studies. In addition to research-related concerns, B. bronchiseptica can sometimes cause clinical disease in baboons and other nonhuman primates. This study examined the use of antibiotics to clear B. bronchiseptica in naturally infected baboons. Thirty-five juvenile baboons were divided into five treatment groups: oral sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (TMS), nebulized gentamicin (gentamicin), combination (TMS + gentamicin) in positive animals, combination (TMS + gentamicin) as a prophylactic in exposed animals and no treatment (control). Combination of oral TMS and nebulized gentamicin given to positive animals was most effective, producing long-term clearance in 11 out of 12 treated animals. To avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics, our primary management strategy is screening and separating to allow natural clearance and limiting exposure to non-infected animals, but this study investigates an antibiotic regimen that could be used in special circumstances.

    Abstract Incidence of Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, is rising in some global human populations despite high vaccination rates, and significant research is underway to address the issue. Baboons are an established model for pertussis research, but like many mammals, they can be naturally infected with Bordetella bronchiseptica. Because B. bronchiseptica interferes with B. pertussis research, it must be excluded from baboons under consideration for enrollment in pertussis studies. In addition to research‐related concerns, B. bronchiseptica can sometimes cause clinical disease in baboons and other nonhuman primates. This study examined the use of antibiotics to clear B. bronchiseptica in naturally infected baboons. Thirty‐five juvenile baboons were divided into five treatment groups: oral sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (TMS), nebulized gentamicin (gentamicin), combination (TMS + gentamicin) in positive animals, combination (TMS + gentamicin) as a prophylactic in exposed animals and no treatment (control).

    Abstract Gingival lesions as the sole manifestation of African histoplasmosis (Histoplasma capsulatum var. duboisii) have never been reported in baboons. Grossly, lesions can be indistinguishable from bacterial ulcerative gingivitis or gingival hyperplasia. Clinical outcomes of primary gingival histoplasmosis in baboons are unknown and may complicate colony management decisions.

    Abstract Background: This study determined the long-term effects of prolonged hypotension (PH) on liver, muscle, and kidney dysfunction. The hypothesis was that longer duration of PH after hemorrhage will result in greater organ dysfunction.
    Methods: Baboons were sedated and hemorrhaged (30% blood volume). Systolic blood pressure greater than 80 mm Hg was maintained for 1 hour (1 hr-PH; n = 5), 2 hours (2 hr-PH; n = 5), or 3 hours (3 hr-PH; n = 5). After PH, hemorrhage volume was replaced. Animals were recovered and monitored for 21 days. Control animals were hemorrhaged and immediately resuscitated (0 hr-PH, n = 3). Data are Mean ± Standard Deviation, and analyzed by 2-way repeated measures ANOVA and Holm-Sidak test.
    Results: Hemorrhage resulted in mild hypotension. Minimal resuscitation was required during the hypotensive phase, and survival rate was 100%. Significant increases (p < 0.001) in alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine phosphokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase occurred on Day 1 after PH, and were significantly greater (p < 0.001) in the 2 hr- and 3 hr-PH groups than the 0 hr-PH group. Maximum alanine aminotransferase levels (U/L) were 140 ± 56 (0 hr-PH), 170 ± 130 (1 hr-PH), 322 ± 241 (2 hr-PH), and 387 ± 167 (3 hr-PH). Maximum aspartate aminotransferase levels (U/L) were 218 ± 44 (0 hr-PH), 354 ± 219 (1 hr-PH), 515 ± 424 (2 hr-PH), and 711 ± 278 (3 hr-PH). Maximum creatine phosphokinase values (U/L) were 7834 ± 3681 (0 hr-PH), 24336 ± 22268 (1 hr-PH), 50494 ± 67653 (2 hr-PH), and 59857 ± 32408 (3 hr-PH). Maximum lactic acid dehydrogenase values (U/L) were 890 ± 396 (0 hr-PH), 2055 ± 1520 (1 hr-PH), 3992 ± 4895 (2 hr-PH), and 4771 ± 1884 (3 hr-PH). Plasma creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were unaffected by PH (p > 0.10).
    Conclusion: These results indicate that PH up to 3 hours in duration results in transient liver and muscle dysfunction that was most severe after 2 hr-PH and 3 hr-PH. Prolonged hypotension produced minimal effects on the kidney.
    Level of evidence: Basic science research, Level of evidence not required for basic science research.

    Abstract Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase associated with alcohol dependence in humans and behavioral responses to ethanol in mice. To characterize the ability of ALK to control ethanol consumption, we treated mice with the ALK inhibitors TAE684 or alectinib before testing them for binge-like drinking using the drinking in the dark protocol. Mice treated with ALK inhibitors drank less ethanol than controls. In addition, TAE684 treatment abolished ethanol conditioned place preference, indicating that ALK regulates the rewarding properties of ethanol. Because the ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a key brain region involved in the rewarding effects of ethanol, we determined if Alk expression in the VTA is important for binge-like ethanol consumption. Mice expressing a short hairpin ribonucleic acid targeting Alk in the VTA drank less ethanol compared with controls. ALK is expressed on dopamine (DA) neurons in the VTA, suggesting that ALK might regulate their firing properties. Extracellular recordings of putative DA neurons in VTA slices demonstrated that ALK inhibition did not affect the ability of ethanol to stimulate, or DA to inhibit, the firing of DA neurons. However, inhibiting ALK attenuated the time-dependent reversal of inhibition produced by moderate concentrations of DA, suggesting that ALK affects DA D2 autoreceptor (D2R) desensitization. Altered desensitization of the D2R changes the firing of DA neurons and is predicted to affect DA levels and alcohol drinking. These data support the possibility that ALK might be a novel target of pharmacotherapy for reducing excessive alcohol consumption.

    Abstract Demand for nonhuman primates in research has increased over the past several years, while nonhuman primate supply remains a challenge in the United States. Global nonhuman primate supply issues make it increasingly important to maximize domestic colony production. To explore how housing conditions across primate breeding colonies impact infant survival and animal production more broadly, we collected medical records from 7959 rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) and 492 pigtail macaques (Macaca nemestrina) across seven breeding facilities and used generalized mixed-effect modeling to determine prenatal and infant survival odds by housing type and group size. Infant survival odds for each housing type and group size varied for prenatal, neonatal, early infant, and late infant age groups. Odds of prenatal survival were lowest in paired indoor housing and small and medium outdoor groups. No housing type performed better than large outdoor groups for neonatal survival. Odds of early infant survival was greatest in indoor and mixed indoor/outdoor housing compared to large outdoor enclosures. Large outdoor housing was associated with higher survival odds for late infant survival compared to small and medium outdoor housing. These results may influence housing choices at macaque breeding facilities hoping to maximize infant success, although there are relative care costs, the promotion of species-typical behaviors, and infrastructure factors to also consider. Our study used an interinstitutional collaboration that allowed for the analysis of more infant macaque medical records than ever before and used the broad variations across the seven national primate research centers to make the results applicable to many other facilities housing macaques.

    Abstract Marburg virus (MARV) is a virus of high human consequence with a case fatality rate of 24-88%. The global health and national security risks posed by Marburg virus disease (MVD) underscore the compelling need for a prophylactic vaccine, but no candidate has yet reached regulatory approval. Here, we evaluate a replication-defective chimpanzee adenovirus type 3 (ChAd3)-vectored MARV Angola glycoprotein (GP)-expressing vaccine against lethal MARV challenge in macaques. The ChAd3 platform has previously been reported to protect against the MARV-related viruses, Ebola virus (EBOV) and Sudan virus (SUDV), and MARV itself in macaques, with immunogenicity demonstrated in macaques and humans. In this study, we present data showing 100% protection against MARV Angola challenge (versus 0% control survival) and associated production of GP-specific IgGs generated by the ChAd3-MARV vaccine following a single dose of 1 × 10
