ABSTRACT
Limited longitudinal data exist on the effect of HIV on adipose tissue (AT). We found an increase in CD4+ cells and detectable SHIV-RNA in AT during acute SHIV infection. SHIV-RNA+ cells were rare, suggesting that AT is unlikely to be a major source of productively infected cells in SHIV infection.

BACKGROUND: A mammary nodule was noted in a male rhesus macaque during physical examination. METHODS AND RESULTS: Histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis was performed. Ductal carcinoma in situ was confirmed. CONCLUSIONS: To date, there are two reports of mammary carcinoma in male non-human primates, and none in the rhesus macaque.
