There is a reluctance in preclinical rheumatoid arthritis research to consider non human primates as useful disease models in translational research and for the development of anti-rheumatic drugs. This review pleads for the usage of nonhuman primates disease models to bridge the wide immunological gap between rodents and the RA patient.
