This study investigates the use of dexmedetomidine (DEX) in cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis) as a potential alternative or adjunct sedative. Four experiments were conducted to determine: (1) the safety and efficacy of DEX as a sole sedative; (2) optimal dose combinations of DEX and KET; (3) a comparison of DEX/KET sedation outcomes to historical KET-only sedation data; and (4) a comparison of the sedation duration of DEX/KET combinations to KET alone. First, we evaluated escalating doses of DEX (0.02-4.04 mg/kg), and in 11 of 14 attempts, animals remained rousable and maintained posture for up to 90 minutes. Then, we used a fixed DEX dose (0.75 mg/kg) combined with escalating KET doses (1.0-2.252 mg/kg) to reduce overall KET exposure and successfully achieved 90 minutes of sedation. We then compared DEX/KET sedation outcomes to prior KET-only sedation records, revealing fewer instances of emesis, less food waste, and improved repairing success with DEX/KET. Finally, KET alone (10 mg/kg) or a DEX/KET combination (0.75 mg/kg DEX and 2.25 mg/kg KET) was evaluated for routine colony management procedures without atipamezole (ATI) reversal. The DEX/KET group exhibited significantly longer sedation durations with reduced hypersalivation and vomiting compared with the KET-only group. These experiments demonstrated that DEX alone was insufficient for sedation in macaques at the tested doses and had no adverse outcomes at significantly higher doses than previously reported.

A 2.5-year-old female laboratory opossum was euthanized for humane reasons after presenting lethargy, inappetence, and a severely distended abdomen. Gross necropsy revealed marked uterine enlargement. Cytologic evaluation demonstrated the presence of septic endometrial fluid, and aerobic bacterial culture yielded heavy growth of Escherichia coli and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Histopathologic examination confirmed suppurative endometritis (pyometra) with concurrent pyosalpinx and endometrial adenocarcinoma. Subsequently, 3 additional cases of pyometra were identified within the same colony, prompting further evaluation. These 4 affected animals (ages 2.1-2.52 years) were all from the PBP strain and demonstrated consistent clinical and reproductive features. Common findings included infertility or reduced reproductive success, abdominal distension, lethargy, and lumbosacral alopecia. To assess the novelty of this finding, a comprehensive literature search was conducted using Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science, with keywords related to laboratory opossums, marsupials, and reproductive pathology. No prior reports describing histopathologic features of pyometra or associated neoplasia in M. domestica were identified. This case series suggests that pyometra may represent an underrecognized reproductive condition in laboratory opossums, potentially associated with age, reproductive history, and strain-specific factors.

We recently observed that CAH severity varies among outbred athymic nude mouse stocks, but the relative contributions of host genetics and the microbiome remain unclear. We hypothesized that disease course and severity vary based on host genetic stock and/or microbiome composition. Three nude mouse stocks were rederived into the axenic state and either monoinfected with a pathogenic C. bovis isolate (104 CFU) or given sterile media (n = 6/group). Axenic mice were also reassociated with their source microbiome or microbiomes from 3 other stocks with known differences in CAH severity and then inoculated with C. bovis (n = 6) or sterile media (n = 2). In a separate experiment, one axenic stock was used to assess the role of Corynebacterium amycolatum via monoinfection, monoinfection followed by C. bovis challenge, or addition to a nonprotective microbiome followed by C. bovis challenge. Mice were monitored daily for 21 days and scored for skin lesions (0-5). C. bovis monoinfected mice developed disease comparable in severity and timing to conventionally raised controls. Notably, reassociation with Vendor A2's microbiome prevented clinical lesions and reduced histopathologic changes across all stocks. While C. amycolatum as a monoinfection did not cause disease nor reduce disease severity following C. bovis challenge, it delayed the onset and lowered peak scores when added to a nonprotective microbiome. These findings demonstrate that C. bovis can cause CAH as a monoinfection and that both host genetics and microbiome composition influence disease progression and, together with prior work, support its role as the etiologic agent consistent with the Koch postulates.

However, conventional methods such as metabolic caging and manual restraint are often invasive, labor intensive, prone to contamination, and not scalable for large cohorts, while also raising animal welfare concerns. This study presents a noninvasive and practical technique for collecting spot urine samples from healthy and tumor-bearing mice developed as a refinement to existing collection approaches. The method involves positioning the mouse in a natural voiding posture by allowing the hindlimbs to hang freely while the forelimbs grip a wire bar feeder, thereby stabilizing the animal and reducing excessive movement. Gentle abdominal pressure is applied only when needed. The method was validated in 80 C3H/HeJ and athymic nude mice, including both healthy and tumor-bearing (fibrosarcoma or prostate cancer [PC3]) models. Using this approach, spot urine volumes ranging from 13 to 200 µL were reliably collected from all mice, with each successful collection completed within 1 minute. Urine was successfully collected on the first attempt in ∼70% of cases. The mean urine yield was 51.7 ± 38.9 µL for healthy females, 53.7 ± 28.5 µL for healthy males, 50.8 ± 20.2 µL for tumor-bearing females, and 52.2 ± 28.1 µL for tumor-bearing males, with no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) in urine volume distributions between groups. No visible fecal or particulate contamination was observed during sample collection. The collected volumes are sufficient for a wide range of molecular and metabolic analyses, ensuring the method's applicability in diverse research settings. Unlike other techniques that involve excessive handling, this method requires no restraint devices, making it well suited for large cohort studies and repeated sampling. The proposed technique represents a practical refinement in preclinical research by offering an optimal balance between sample quality, animal welfare, and experimental efficiency.</p>","PeriodicalId":94111,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science : JAALAS","volume":" ","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13641247/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148474973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This analysis reviews Centers for Disease Control surveillance data to characterize trends in age, weight, and health status in imported NHPs over a 10-year period with the goal of better understanding how changes in supply might affect the health status of imported NHPs. We used linear and binomial regression to explore relationships between shipment characteristics and health status. The source countries of imported NHPs shifted dramatically during the study period, with the majority of animals initially coming from China, then Cambodia, and then Mauritius. Median age and weight declined steadily for most of the study period but have begun to rebound in recent years. Predictors of illness and death in quarantine included lower median shipment weight, larger shipment size, and either China or Vietnam as the source country. The results of this analysis suggest that recent changes in supply may have contributed to an increase in adverse health events in quarantined NHPs. Having a more substantial domestic supply of NHPs for research may help to address these concerns.

This study evaluated the feasibility and practical applicability of environment-derived dust-based REM in an open-top housing facility using open-top cages and open racks. Microbial capture at room exhaust outlets was first assessed by culture-based analysis of exhaust prefilters in mouse, rat, and rabbit rooms. In parallel, exhaust louver-derived dust (ELD) was collected from downstream exhaust duct louvers and analyzed by PCR. To enable more frequent and standardized sampling, floor-derived dust (FDD) was collected using robotic cleaning devices and subjected to PCR analysis. The impact of robotic cleaning on environmental hygiene and welfare was evaluated using ATP-based cleanliness testing and noise measurements. Environmental microorganisms were consistently captured on exhaust prefilters, including in rooms without animals. PCR-based testing successfully detected microbial nucleic acids in both ELD and FDD samples across multiple facility zones, demonstrating the feasibility of REM in an open-top housing system. Robotic-based dust collection provided sufficient material for repeated testing under routine facility operation, without compromising environmental cleanliness or exceeding acceptable noise levels.
