Potentially reduced fusogenicity of syncytin‐2 in New World monkeys [PDF]
FEBS Open Bio, 2023 Syncytin‐2 is a membrane fusion protein involved in placenta development that is derived from the endogenous retrovirus envelope gene acquired in the common ancestral lineage of New World and Old World monkeys (OWMs).

Fetal globin expression in New World monkeys. [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996 Reverse phase chromatography of the globin chains of adult, newborn, and fetal erythrocytes from three species of New World monkeys (Cebus apella, Aotus azarae, and Callithrix jacchus) representing three of the seven platyrrhine clades showed that gamma-globin expression was fetal in these animals.

Climatic niche evolution in New World monkeys (Platyrrhini). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Despite considerable interest in recent years on species distribution modeling and phylogenetic niche conservatism, little is known about the way in which climatic niches change over evolutionary time.

Serological evidence for Saint Louis encephalitis virus in free-ranging New World monkeys and horses within the upper Paraná River basin region, Southern Brazil [PDF]
Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2014 Introduction Saint Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) primarily occurs in the Americas and produces disease predominantly in humans. This study investigated the serological presence of SLEV in nonhuman primates and horses from southern Brazil.

Ocular dominance columns in New World monkeys [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 1996 Squirrel monkeys normally lack ocular dominance columns in V1. This study shows that squirrel monkeys can exhibit clear ocular dominance columns if they are made strabismic within a few weeks of birth. Columns were seen only in layer 4C beta and were coarser than the overlying blob pattern in the same animal.

Comprehensive characterization of evolutionary conserved breakpoints in four New World Monkey karyotypes compared to Chlorocebus aethiops and Homo sapiens [PDF]
Heliyon, 2015 Comparative cytogenetic analysis in New World Monkeys (NWMs) using human multicolor banding (MCB) probe sets were not previously done. Here we report on an MCB based FISH-banding study complemented with selected locus-specific and heterochromatin ...

Reactivity of HLADR antibody manifests expression of surface MHC II molecules on peripheral blood T lymphocytes in new world monkeys [PDF]
Immunity, Inflammation and DiseaseBackground Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules expressed on B cells, monocytes and dendritic cells present processed peptides to CD4+ T cells as one of the mechanisms to combat infection and inflammation.

Genetic diversity in oxytocin ligands and receptors in New World monkeys. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Oxytocin (OXT) is an important neurohypophyseal hormone that influences wide spectrum of reproductive and social processes. Eutherian mammals possess a highly conserved sequence of OXT (Cys-Tyr-Ile-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Leu-Gly).

Patterns of MHC-G-Like and MHC-B Diversification in New World Monkeys. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The MHC class I (MHC-I) region in New World monkeys (Platyrrhini) has remained relatively understudied. To evaluate the diversification patterns and transcription behavior of MHC-I in Platyrrhini, we first analyzed public genomic sequences from the MHC-G-
