Especially in light of the fact that the World Health Organizaiton (WHO) recently launched its second yaws eradication campaign, there is a considerable need for reliable tools to identify treponemal infection in our closest relatives, African monkeys and great apes. It was hypothesized that commercially available serological tests detect simian anti-T. pallidum antibody in serum samples of baboons, with comparable sensitivity and specificity to their results on human sera. Test performances of five different treponemal tests (TTs) and two non-treponemal tests (NTTs) were evaluated using serum samples of 57 naturally T. pallidum-infected olive baboons (Papio anubis) from Lake Manyara National Park in Tanzania. The T. pallidum particle agglutination assay (TP-PA) was used as a gold standard for comparison. In addition, the overall infection status of the animals was used to further validate test performances. For most accurate results, only samples that originated from baboons of known infection status, as verified in a previous study by clinical inspection, PCR and immunohistochemistry, were included. All tests, TTs and NTTs, used in this study were able to reliably detect antibodies against T. pallidum in serum samples of infected baboons. The sensitivity of TTs ranged from 97.7-100%, while specificity was between 88.0-100.0%. The two NTTs detected anti-lipoidal antibodies in serum samples of infected baboons with a sensitivity of 83.3% whereas specificity was 100%. For screening purposes, the TT Espline TP provided the highest sensitivity and specificity and at the same time provided the most suitable format for use in the field. The enzyme immune assay Mastblot TP (IgG), however, could be considered as a confirmatory test."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1371/journal.pntd.0003637"],["dc.identifier.pmid","25803295"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/13558"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/58687"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","1935-2735"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.subject.mesh","Agglutination Tests"],["dc.subject.mesh","Animals"],["dc.subject.mesh","Antibodies, Bacterial"],["dc.subject.mesh","Monkey Diseases"],["dc.subject.mesh","Papio"],["dc.subject.mesh","Sensitivity and Specificity"],["dc.subject.mesh","Serologic Tests"],["dc.subject.mesh","Tanzania"],["dc.subject.mesh","Treponema pallidum"],["dc.subject.mesh","Yaws"],["dc.title","Validation of serological tests for the detection of antibodies against Treponema pallidum in nonhuman primates."],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The species exhibit more ecological flexibility and a wider range of social systems than many other primates. This article summarizes our current knowledge of the natural history of baboons and highlights directions for future research. We suggest that baboons can serve as a valuable model for complex evolutionary processes, such as speciation and hybridization. The evolution of baboons has been heavily shaped by climatic changes and population expansion and fragmentation in the African savanna environment, similar to the processes that acted during human evolution. With accumulating long-term data, and new data from previously understudied species, baboons are ideally suited for investigating the links between sociality, health, longevity and reproductive success. To achieve these aims, we propose a closer integration of studies at the proximate level, including functional genomics, with behavioral and ecological studies."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.7554/eLife.50989"],["dc.identifier.eissn","2050-084X"],["dc.identifier.pmid","31711570"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16961"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/79034"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","2050-084X"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Insights into the evolution of social systems and species from baboon studies"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
