Nonhuman primate models have an essential role in understanding progressive respiratory disease pathogenesis. Immune and physiologic parameters in the nonhuman primate closely reflect the complexity of human systems and provide an exceptional translational impact for the investigation of the mucosal immune changes in response to environmental exposures. This potential warrants the development of novel models that will clarify the interaction of respiratory disease and the inhalable environment and the potential of novel therapies to alleviate the untoward results of these interactions. Nonhuman primate models of asthma can be spontaneous, induced, or experimentally manipulated by various exposures. Here we describe a model of exacerbation of airway hyperreactivity induced by exposure to an air pollutant, ozone, in a cohort of young adult asthmatic rhesus macaques. |
