Characterization of ovarian aging and reproductive senescence in vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus). [PDF]

open access: yesComp Med, 2014
Female vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) are used as an experimental model for chronic diseases relevant to women's health. However, reproductive senescence (menopause) has not yet been characterized for vervet monkeys. Here we describe the histologic, hormonal, and menstrual markers of reproductive senescence in vervet monkeys from the ...

Early Alzheimer's disease‐like reductions in gray matter and cognitive function with aging in nonhuman primates

open access: yesAlzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2022
Introduction Age‐related neuropathology associated with sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD) often develops well before the onset of symptoms. Given AD's long preclinical period, translational models are needed to identify early signatures of pathological ...

Impacts of habitats and seasons on mammalian diversity and distribution in the Faragosa-Fura landscape, Gamo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesGeology, Ecology, and Landscapes, 2021
In Ethiopia, most of the studies on mammals have focused on single species and protected areas. This survey investigated the impacts of habitats and seasons on the medium and large-sized mammals’ diversity and distribution in a human-dominated ...

Whole-body plethysmography in African green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) with and without jackets. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Am Assoc Lab Anim Sci, 2008
Indwelling central venous catheters are often used to facilitate frequent phlebotomy while minimizing stress and anesthetic effects on animals. However, nonhuman primates with central venous catheters must wear protective jackets. Jackets routinely are removed for aerosol exposure to agents and respiratory measurements by whole-body plethysmography ...

Determinants of Paternity Success in a Group of Captive Vervet Monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Primatology, 2010
Paternity success of high-ranking primate males is affected by the number of males and the number of fertile females and their cycle synchrony. Female vervets in the wild show strong reproductive seasonality and do not advertise the ovulatory period with conspicuous signals or behavior.

A mobile element-based evolutionary history of guenons (tribe Cercopithecini)

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2007
Background Guenons (tribe Cercopithecini) are a species-rich group of primates that have attracted considerable attention from both primatologists and evolutionary biologists. The complex speciation pattern has made the elucidation of their relationships

Biological and pharmacological investigations of novel diamidines in animal models of human African trypanosomiasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
"African sleeping sickness, also called human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), results from the infection of humans with either of two protozoan parasites, Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and T. b. rhodesiense. HAT is transmitted by tsetse flies (Glossina spp)
