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

Alzheimer’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 ...

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.

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

Geology, 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 ...

Variable responses of human and non-human primate gut microbiomes to a Western diet [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: The human gut microbiota interacts closely with human diet and physiology. To better understand the mechanisms behind this relationship, gut microbiome research relies on complementing human studies with manipulations of animal models ...

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 static allometry of sexual and non-sexual traits in vervet monkeys [PDF]

, 2014
Sexual traits vary tremendously in static allometry. This variation may be explained in part by body size-related differences in the strength of selection.

Autosomal recessive congenital cataract in captive‐bred vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) [PDF]

Journal of Medical Primatology, 2018
AbstractBackgroundThe aim of the study was to evaluate the genetic predisposition of congenital cataract in a colony of captive‐bred vervet monkeys.MethodsFour congenital cataract genes: glucosaminyl (N‐acetyl) transferase 2 (GCNT2), heat shock transcription factor 4 (HSF4), crystallin alpha A (CRYAA) and lens intrinsic membrane protein‐2 (LIM2) were ...

Calcinosis Circumscripta with Iron Mineralization in an African Green Monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus). [PDF]

J Am Assoc Lab Anim Sci
A 19-y-old, colony-born, female African green monkey (Chlorocebus sabaeus) presented for recurrent swelling measuring 11 × 5 × 4 cm on the right thigh, around the stifle, which started 5 y previous, resulting in lameness. The affected area had alopecia and crusting and felt lobulated on palpation.

How many species of whipworms do we share? Whipworms from man and other primates form two phylogenetic lineages [PDF]

, 2015
The whipworms, i.e. parasitic nematodes of the genus Trichuris Roederer, 1761, infect a variety of mammals. Apparently low diversity of primate-infecting species of Trichuris strongly contrasts with the high number of species described in other ...

Environmental stress alters genetic regulation of novelty seeking in vervet monkeys. [PDF]

, 2011
Considerable attention has been paid to identifying genetic influences and gene-environment interactions that increase vulnerability to environmental stressors, with promising but inconsistent results.
