Feeding Habits and Activity Patterns of Grivet Monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops L.) in Batiero Church Forest, Northern Ethiopia

International Journal of Zoology, 2023
Grivet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) are restricted to fragmented forests where food and space are limiting factors. The study investigated the feeding and activity patterns of grivet monkeys in Batiero Church Forest, northern Ethiopia, using focal and ...

The mitochondrial genome sequence of the BS-C-1 cell line is at odds with the reported derivation from Cercopithecus aethiops

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The BS-C-1 cell line widely used in virological research was reportedly derived from the African green monkey Cercopithecus (Chlorocebus) aethiops. We used Sanger sequencing to determine the full nucleotide sequence of mtDNA in BS-C-1 cells.

Co-Occurrence of Physical and Cognitive Decline in Vervet Monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) [PDF]

Innov Aging, 2020
Abstract Age-related neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer’s (AD) disease begins in middle age, well before the onset of symptoms. Therefore, translational models to identify modifiable risk factors in middle-age are needed to understand etiology and identify therapeutic targets.

Characterization of glucose-stimulated insulin release protocols in african green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops). [PDF]

J Med Primatol, 2019
AbstractBackgroundManagement of diabetes remains a major health and economic challenge, demanding test systems in which to develop new therapies. These studies assessed different methodologies for determining glucose tolerance in green monkeys.MethodsTwenty‐eight African green monkeys between 4 and 24 years old underwent single or repeat intravenous ...

Spatial molecular characterization of early Alzheimer's disease neuropathology in aged Vervet monkeys [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background Vervets (Chlorocebus aethiops) are non‐human primates in which we previously demonstrated brain amyloid b (Ab) deposition and phosphorylated tau associations with reduced brain volume, glucose metabolism, and gait speed but lacking true neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs).

Social frailty and brain health in nonhuman primates: Relationships between social behavior, neuroanatomy, and CSF biomarkers relevant to Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background In humans, age‐related accumulations of physical deficits are often characterized by frailty indices, which predict increased risk for neurodegeneration characteristic of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, social capabilities also may diminish, with considerable variation in inter‐individual trajectories of decline and AD risk ...

Genetic diversity of Cryptosporidium spp. in non-human primates in rural and urban areas of Ethiopia.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Non-Human Primates (NHPs) harbor Cryptosporidium genotypes that can infect humans and vice versa. NHPs Chlorocebus aethiops and Colobus guereza and humans have overlapping territories in some regions of Ethiopia, which may increase the risk of zoonotic ...
