Accommodative range in amblyopic monkeys (Macaca nemestrina)

Vision Research, 1984
Three naturally strabismic and two chronic bilaterally atropinized monkeys were tested for spatial contrast sensitivity and range of accommodation. All eyes that showed deficits in contrast sensitivity also showed deficits in accommodation. The strabismic monkeys all showed interocular differences in their CSFs and in their accommodative ranges.

Antigen‐specific cytokine responses in vaccinated Macaca nemestrina

Journal of Medical Primatology, 1999
Abstract: We describe a new surrogate assay for CD8 + T lymphocyte activity that has the capability of discriminating between cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity and cytokine‐mediated suppressive activity. We applied this approach to two groups of Macaca nemestrina vaccinated with a minimally pathogenic strain of human immunodeficiency virus type 2 ...

Group formation of female pigtail macaques (Macaca nemestrina)

American Journal of Primatology, 1996
Human epidemiological studies have suggested that social variables can modulate the effects of stress on the immune system, and this concept has been gaining increasing attention with positive results emerging from empirical studies using nonhuman primates over the last two decades.

Renal Disease in the Pigtailed Macaque (Macaca nemestrina)

Veterinary Pathology, 1981
Spontaneous renal disease in the pigtailed macaque was evaluated in a prospective study of 20 apparently healthy monkeys that were killed and a retrospective study of 674 monkeys that died of spontaneous disease. Many apparently normal pigtailed macaques have a mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis of slight to moderate severity.

Hemoglobin Polymorphism in Macaca nemestrina

Science, 1966
Four hemoglobin phenotypes have been noted in the pigtailed monkey ( Macaca nemestrina ). Pedigree studies suggest a simple codominant Mendelian explanation for inheritance of three of these phenotypes, including one electrophoretically identical with human type A. The fourth type occurred in only one animal in this

Tooth and Body Size Correlations in Macaca nemestrina

Journal of Dental Research, 1975
Do large animals have large teeth? In general they do, but how closely are big teeth correlated with body size? These are important questions that have not been answered satisfactorily for the various mammalian taxa, particularly for primate species. The exceptions concern the teeth of Homo sapiens.

Experimental kuru in Macaca nemestrina: New anatomical data

Acta Neuropathologica, 1983
In Macaca nemestrina inoculated intracerebrally by a pin-point injection with a strain of kuru Kupenota (2nd passage), the lesions consisted of spongiosis of neuropile with severe astrocytic hyperplasia, located in the grey matter of cerebral hemispheres (cortex, neostriatum). In all cases, the distribution of lesions was asymmetrical, predominating on

Measurement of excreted steroids in Macaca nemestrina

American Journal of Primatology, 1987
AbstractA practical method for the quantitative measurement of the estrogenic steroid estradiol‐17β in the feces of pigtailed macaques (Macaca nemestrina) is described. The method, which includes homogenization, filtration, ether extraction, and sephadex purification, produces an 85.3% recovery of 3H‐estradiol.

Social development in nursery‐reared pigtailed macaques (Macaca nemestrina)

American Journal of Primatology, 1997
The social development of 240 nursery-reared pigtailed macaques (Macaca nemestrina) was studied from postnatal weeks 4 to 32. The objectives of the study were to document developmental trends and evaluate social behavior in laboratory-reared M. nemestrina raised at the University of Washington Infant Primate Laboratory, and to identify husbandry ...
