CD200R1 immune checkpoint blockade by the first-in-human anti-CD200R1 antibody 23ME-00610: molecular mechanism and engineering of a surrogate antibody by Cristina Melero, S. Jimmy Budiardjo, Anahita Daruwalla, Lance Larrabee, Oleg Ganichkin, Alexander J. Heiler, Jill Fenaux, Ben Chung, Germaine Fuh, Yao-Ming Huang

“…However, 23ME–00610 does not bind CD200R1 of preclinical species such as cynomolgus monkey MfCD200R1. To enable preclinical toxicology studies of CD200R1 blockade in a pharmacologically relevant non-clinical species, we engineered a surrogate antibody with high affinity toward MfCD200R1. …”

Differences in category information processing between areas TEO and TE of the macaque by Masaumi Shimizu, Shun Katakami, Masato Okada, Yasuko Sugase-Miyamoto, Kazuko Hayashi, Kazuko Hayashi, Keiji Matsuda, Kenichiro Miura, Kenichiro Miura, Mark A. G. Eldridge, Richard C. Saunders, Barry J. Richmond, Narihisa Matsumoto

“…Neurons that respond to a class of complex objects, such as faces, can be found in inferior temporal cortex of macaque monkeys, comprising areas TEO and TE. The ability of monkeys to categorize cat/dog images is greatly impaired when both TE and TEO are removed, but is only modestly impaired if either region is left intact. …”
