The endocannabinoid (eCB) system has been found in all visual parts of the central ner-vous system and plays a role in the processing of visual information in many species, including monkeys and humans. Using anatomical methods, cannabinoid receptors are

How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Pathomorphological, bacteriological and virological features of pneumonia in captive monkeys
Introduction. Respiratory infections pose a significant challenge in veterinary practice due to their high prevalence across various animal species. Pneumonia and gastrointestinal diseases are leading causes of mortality in captive primates.Objective ...

Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Using Qualitative Behavioural Assessment (QBA) surveys, this study evaluated whether QBA has value as a welfare assessment in two species of zoo-housed non-human primate taxa: saki monkeys (Pithecia pithecia) and ring-tailed lemurs (Lemur catta). Surveys

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,

Social learning and behaviour transmission in brown capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) [PDF]
The research aims of this thesis are to experimentally investigate how behaviours spread socially, and what factors contribute to the development of group-wide social traditions in capuchins (Cebus apella).

Similarity in food cleaning techniques within matrilines in wild vervet monkeys [PDF]
Social learning and the formation of traditions rely on the ability and willingness to copy one another. A central question is under which conditions individuals adapt behaviour to social influences.
