Plasma microRNAs to Select Optimal Patients for Antibody Production from Anti-Addiction Vaccines.

: Cocaine and illicit amphetamines (disguised as "Adderall") are being laced with fentanyl and producing accidental and intentional fatal overdoses. Vaccines can prevent these overdoses, but 33% of humans generate insufficient anti-drug antibody (AB) levels. Plasma microRNAs (miRs) can be used to predict non-responders.

Effect of Relocation, Social Housing Changes, and Diarrhea Status on Microbiome Composition of Juvenile Cynomolgus Macaques ().

Social housing changes are likely stressful and can be associated with diarrhea, the most common health problem noted in captive macaque populations. Diarrhea may reflect a negative shift in the gut flora ("gut dysbiosis"). This study reported on changes in the gut microbiome composition of juvenile primates () that experienced a change in social housing and exhibited diarrhea.
