Abstract

Human-to-primate disease transmission can potentially cause significant morbidity and mortality among wild primate populations and thus constitutes an important conservation issue. Our cross-sectional study examines serological evidence of exposure to human pathogens among wild and pet macaques in Sulawesi. Serum samples taken from 11 pet and 15 wild macaques (Macaca tonkeana) were analyzed for antibodies to a panel of viruses commonly encountered in human populations. Antibodies to measles, influenza A, and parainfluenza 1 were detected in sera of both pet and wild macaques. Antibodies to parainfluenza 2 and 3 were found in the sera of wild macaques only. Possible routes of exposure, as well as implications for conservation are discussed.

摘要

人向灵长类动物的疾病传播可能会在野生灵长类种群中导致显著的发病和死亡，因此构成了一个重要的保护问题。我们的横断面研究调查了苏拉威西岛野生和宠物猕猴接触人类病原体的血清学证据。从11只宠物猕猴和15只野生托氏猕猴（Macaca tonkeana）采集血清样本，分析其中针对一组人类常见病毒的抗体。在宠物猕猴和野生猕猴的血清中均检测到了麻疹、甲型流感和副流感1型病毒的抗体。仅在野生猕猴血清中发现了副流感2型和3型病毒的抗体。本文讨论了可能的接触途径以及对保护工作的影响。
