Cataracts in a laboratory colony of African green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops)*
Journal of Medical Primatology, 2005Abstract: Three cases of spontaneous cataracts were investigated in a colony of African green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops). Clinical, pathological and microbiological investigations were conducted in two cases of juvenile cataracts and in one case of a mature cataract.

The effect of hyperglycinemic treatment in captive-bred Vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops)
Metabolic Brain Disease, 2019Nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) is a neuro-metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in the glycine cleavage system (GCS) and glycine transporter 1 (GlyT1). A case of atypical late onset of NKH has been reported in a colony of captive-bred Vervet monkeys.

Uterine angioleiomyoma in an African green monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus)
Journal of Medical Primatology, 2016AbstractBackgroundA uterine neoplasm was observed, as an incidental finding, during post‐mortem examination of a 26‐year‐old female multiparous African green monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus). The intramural, expansile, 2 to 3 cm well‐demarcated, dark‐red, nodular neoplasm was located on the anterior uterine body (corpus) wall.MethodsThe mass was ...

Characteristics and regulation of the ovarian cycle in vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops)
American Journal of Primatology, 2007AbstractThis study was designed to evaluate the timecourse of ovarian and pituitary endocrine events throughout the menstrual cycle in the vervet monkey, and whether circulating luteinizing hormone (LH) or the uterus regulates the functional lifespan of the vervet corpus luteum. Daily saphenous blood samples were collected from adult females (1) during

Nonketotic hyperglycinemia in captive‐bred Vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) with cataracts
Journal of Medical Primatology, 2019AbstractBackgroundNonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) is a rare metabolic disorder that is characterized by high levels of glycine in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid in humans. In this study, total congenital cataract captive‐bred Vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) that are hyperglycinemic were screened to identify mutations in Bola type 3 (BOLA3 ...

Hypertensive pregnancy disorders are a major contribution to maternal and neonatal mortality worldwide. Two of these disorders, preeclampsia and chronic hypertension in pregnancy, affect up to 10% of all pregnancies. These hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are associated with long-term, postnatal risk factors for both mother and offspring.

Vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) often live in close proximity to humans. Vervets are known to raid crops, homes and gardens in suburban areas leading to human-vervet conflict. In general, primate groups with access to human foods experience increased population densities and intra-group aggression.

There are many known benefits of social grooming among primates, including maintenance of social relationships, removal of ectoparasites, and improved physiological condition. Recently, however, researchers have noted that social grooming and social contact may also present a significant cost by facilitating transmission of some parasites and pathogens.

Case Report: Lymphosarcoma in Adult African Green Monkeys (Chlorocebus Aethiops)
2014The clinical observations and pathological manifestations of lymphosarcoma in two African green monkeys are described. Monkeys had been caught from the wild. Prior to the development of neoplasms one monkey had been experimentally infected with Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense as a model of human trypanosomiasis and subsequently treated with a ...

Little information is available on the response of vervet monkeys to different housing conditions or on the suitability of enrichment devices or methods for vervet monkeys. In this study, the authors evaluated the occurrence of stereotyped behavior in adult vervet monkeys under various conditions of housing and enrichment.
