Although non-human primates account for only a small proportion of the animals used in biomedical research, they remain important research models due to their high degree of similarity to humans in terms of genetic makeup, anatomy, physiology and behaviour. Key medical advances have been driven by research conducted using non-human primates, primarily monkeys, saving or improving the lives of...

Earthworms are a valuable, multifunctional resource in drug development. They have evolved sophisticated defense mechanisms against microbial infections, and the bioactive agents in earthworm extracts (EEs) demonstrate potent antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties in both in vitro and in vivo studies. EE alleviates inflammation triggered by infections and effectively mitigates...
