An Assessment of the Relationships Among Species of Camelidae by Satellite DNA Comparisons [PDF]
Hereditas, 2004 Tandem satellite arrays and interspersed repetitive DNA components of the New World camelids guanaco, llama, alpaca, and vicuña and the Old World bactrian camel have been identified and compared. Southern hybridizations, using camel restriction fragments as probes, indicated that satellite DNAs in all camelids examined have been conserved since the ...

Purification et caractérisation de la D-bêta-hydroxybutyrate déshydrogenase de mitochondries de foie de chamelon [PDF]
Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2000 La D-bêta-hydroxybutyrate déshydrogénase (BDH) est une protéine membranaire mitochondriale. Elle est située sur la face interne de la membrane interne, fortement liée à la membrane. C'est une oxydoréductase à NAD+ (H). Elle intervient dans le métabolisme

Characterization of paneth cells in alpacas (Vicugna pacos, Mammalia, Camelidae)
Tissue and Cell, 2016 Paneth cells are secretory epithelial cells of the innate immune system of the intestine of several mammals, including alpacas. Little is known about the latter; thus, in the present study we described the morphology and histochemical characteristics of Paneth cells in healthy fetuses, and young and adult alpacas. For this purpose, samples of duodenum,

Taxonomic and biogeographical status of guanaco Lama guanicoe (Artiodactyla, Camelidae) [PDF]
Mammal Review, 2006 ABSTRACT We review the status of the four currently recognized guanaco Lama guanicoe subspecies, and provide information about their taxonomy and distribution. The success of guanaco in inhabiting open habitats of South America is based mainly on the flexibility of their social behaviour and ecophysiological adaptations to harsh environments. Lönnberg

Mitochondrial DNA Variation and Systematics of the Guanaco (Lama guanicoe, Artiodactyla: Camelidae) [PDF]
Journal of Mammalogy, 2008 Guanacos (Lama guanicoe) are the most important native herbivorous species in the South American steppes and the dominant ungulate in a fauna rich in rodents but poor in large mammal species. Between 2 and 4 subspecies are usually recognized within Lama guanicoe, based on subtle morphological differences and geographic distribution. To evaluate whether

Pathology of Wildlife and Zoo Animals, 2018 New world (NW) camelids, alpaca, llama, vicuña, and guanaco, and old world (OW) camelids, Bactrian and dromedary camels are related and have many of the same anatomical features and disease susceptibilities though they are also very different. Only the free-ranging population of wild Bactrian camel is endangered.

Molecular Cloning and Phylogenetic Analysis of Inflammatory Cytokines of Camelidae (Llama and Camel)
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2005 We cloned, sequenced and analyzed the cDNAs encoding Camelidae inflammatory cytokines, including llama (lama glama) interleukin (IL)-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and camel (Camelus bactrianus) IL-6 and TNF-alpha. The similarity levels of the deduced amino acid sequences of IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha from llama (
