Abstract
T cells have been successfully applied to cancer immunotherapy. However, a challenge is an expansion of T cells from cynomolgus monkey, which is a valuable non-human primate model for T cell therapy transferring to the clinic. Here, we compared several strategies to expand cynomolgus monkey T cell and developed an appropriate method. Our study demonstrated that 100 ng/ml CD3 mAb + 1% PHA+ 1000 U/ml IL2 therapy significantly expanded peripheral blood CD3+ T cells without compromising T cell phenotype in vitro. The results of this study could be used for T cell remodeling, which has significant therapeutic potential in Chimeric Antigen Receptor-T (CAR-T) cell immunotherapy.

Abstract
In the present study we examined the relationship among handedness, immune functioning, and behavioural reactivity in rhesus macaques. We used the absolute number of CD4+ (T-helper) and CD8+ (T-suppressor) cells as dependent measures of immune functioning. We derived reactivity profiles from behavioural responses to a threat, and hand preference profiles from a quadrupedal food-reaching test. The results indicate positive correlations between the frequency of right versus left hand reaches and the absolute number of CD4+ cells, and between the frequency of right versus left hand reaches and the degree of human-directed aggression in response to an invasive threat. Immune measures were not associated with the strength of hand preference. These results are consistent with and extend previous findings obtained with rodents to nonhuman primates and provide further support for the view that behavioural lateralisation is associated with immune functioning and behavioural reactivity.

Abstract
The influence of maternal stress during pregnancy on the postpartum iron status and immune maturation of infants was investigated in a nonhuman primate model. Forty infant rhesus monkeys were generated from two types of disturbed pregnancies, early or late gestation stress, and compared with 24 undisturbed controls. Prenatal stress increased the prevalence and magnitude of iron deficiency (ID) as the infants' growth-related demands for iron exceeded dietary intake from breast milk. At 4-6 mo of age, the emergence of ID significantly accentuated an effect of prenatal stress on natural killer cell activity, an important component of innate immunity. These findings indicate that maternal stress, especially early in pregnancy, should be added to the list of risk factors that warrant closer scrutiny of hematological profiles in fast-growing babies.

Abstract
Natural killer (NK) cells and NK cell activities in the rhesus macaque have been incompletely characterized. Using a recently developed rhesus NK target cell line with down-regulated MHC-I (B116Lo) as stimulators and FACS-sorted cells as effectors in a 4-h [51Cr]-release assay we showed that the CD3-CD8lo subpopulation is the primary effector population for NK cell-mediated cytolysis. The majority of these cells co-express CD16, CD11b, NKG2D, and NKp46. To evaluate functional activity at the individual cell level, we employed intracellular cytokine staining and a flow cytometric assay for degranulation, based on cell surface CD107a expression. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that a greater proportion of NK cells degranulated than produced cytokines in response to B116Lo stimulation; the frequency of CD107a-expressing cells within the total NK cell population ranging from 5 to 39%. Somewhat surprisingly, we did not find a significant correlation between lysis, measured by [51Cr]-release assay, and the size of the degranulating NK cell population, implying that additional mechanisms may regulate lytic activity. Use of these approaches should facilitate an improved understanding of NK activity in the rhesus macaque.

Abstract
When guinea pig pups are isolated in a novel environment, they show an initial active phase of behavioral responsiveness characterized by vocalizations and locomotor activity. One earlier study found that after about an hour, pups began to exhibit a second, passive stage of responsiveness marked by a crouched stance, eye-closing, and extensive piloerection. The present experiments tested the hypothesis that the responses during the second, passive stage result from the isolation experience activating pathways underlying the acute phase response, i.e., that behaviors of the second stage represent "stress-induced sickness behaviors". We found the following: (1) the passive stage did not emerge if pups remained with the mother during exposure to a novel cage; (2) injection of lipopolysaccharide, which induces an acute phase response, also led pups to exhibit crouching, eye-closing, and piloerection; and, (3) isolation in the novel cage produced a rise in rectal temperature, but did not affect peripheral or central levels of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta)-immunoreactivity. Overall, these results are consistent with the notion that stress-induced sickness behaviors can account for some of the behaviors of isolated guinea pig pups, though if this is the case, cytokines other than IL-1beta appear to be involved.

Abstract
During maternal separation, some primate and nonprimate species show a biphasic (active/passive) response. The second stage is characterized by reduced activity, a hunched body posture, and other behaviors. Traditionally, the second stage has been referred to as "despair" and is considered an animal model for human depression. Recent research in psychoneuroimmunology suggests an alternative hypothesis--that behaviors occurring during the second passive phase represent stress-induced "sickness behaviors." This perspective more readily accounts for findings in widely divergent species, does not require assumptions regarding the ability to express complex emotional states, is empirically testable, and aligns the separation model with recent hypotheses regarding the nature and ontogeny of depressive illness.

Abstract
In this 2-year longitudinal study, 45 2-year-old female rhesus were observed as they were captured and removed from a free-ranging setting (Phase I), single caged for 1 year (Phase II), and housed in small, stable social groups for an additional year (Phase III). During the study, eight blood samples were taken, and hematological, immunological, and hormonal variables were assayed to determine whether 1) any of the measures would exhibit trait-like, inter-individual longitudinal stability, despite fluctuations in population means induced by Phases I, II, and III; 2) plasma concentrations of cortisol, prolactin, and norepinephrine would be lowest in Phase III, and elevated during the periods of acute and chronic stress associated with Phases I and II; and 3) there would be any evidence of immunosuppression associated with Phases I and II. The results suggest that the majority of hematological/immunological variables were trait-like throughout the study in contrast to plasma cortisol, prolactin, and norepinephrine concentrations. Thus, red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelets, mean corpuscular volume and hemoglobin, as well as white blood cells, the absolute number of CD4+ (T-helper/inducer) cells, the absolute number of CD8+ (T-suppressor/cytotoxic) cells, total T cells (CD2+%), total B cells (CD20+%), and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ cells were trait-like. The hematological measures were changed dramatically by capture and the subsequent single caging, with most not recovering to presumed baselines until after 12-28 weeks. The immune measures were depressed at capture (excepting B cells), and during 7 months of single caging failed to return to normal levels associated with social housing. We thus conclude that single housing can produce significant, long-term features of immunosuppression. Capture produced significant increases in plasma cortisol, prolactin, and norepinephrine concentrations. Long periods of single caging produced significant increases in plasma prolactin concentrations, indicative of stress-induced anxiety, and may also have been associated with down-regulation of plasma norepinephrine and cortisol concentrations.

Abstract
A cohort of free-ranging rhesus monkeys has been followed since birth in 1994 on the island of Cayo Santiago, Puerto Rico. At 3 years of age, subjects were trapped and blood samples were collected after capture and prior to release the following day. Blood samples were processed for natural cytotoxicity toward xenogeneic tumors, phenotyping, and plasma hormones. Intestinal parasites were determined from fresh stool samples collected during trapping. Data were also available from the previous year for antibody titers to latent viruses prevalent in this population. Behavioral traits of each monkey were characterized using a previously developed trait scale for rhesus monkeys. Natural cytotoxicity toward both K562 and Raji targets declined from capture until release the following day. Plasma cortisol rose and plasma prolactin and growth hormone fell during the period of captivity; a rise in insulin was significant. It was expected that individual differences in behavioral traits might predict immune and hormone levels at the time of capture or changes in these parameters during the capture period. Although behavioral adjectives tended to cluster along three orthogonal dimensions (Insecurity, Irritability, and Sociability), they bore no relationship to the physiological parameters collected acutely (in vitro immune and endocrine parameters). The individual difference markers of gender and maternal rank were not related to the magnitude of the observed changes in these in vitro parameters, either. However, an in vivo measure (CMV titer) was related to individual differences in Irritability. It was concluded that the magnitude of the stress associated with capture overwhelmed the individual difference effects.
