  • Title: [Morphine addiction in non-human primates using rhesus monkeys].
    Author: Wu XJ, Zong W, Sun YM, Hu XT, Ma YY, Wang JH.
    Journal: Dongwuxue Yanjiu; 2012 Feb; 33(1):89-91. PubMed ID: 22345015.
    Abstract:
    We showed that rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) can develop a morphine dependence. Rhesus monkeys successfully established a conditioned place preference (CPP) induced by morphine treatment and this preference lasted for at least (36.3 ± 1.3) months. This animal model may be useful for research into addiction in humans.
