Plasma and hepatic apoE isoproteins of nonhuman primates. Differences in apoE among humans, apes, and New and Old World monkeys.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1985
We have used two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) to study the plasma and hepatic apoE isoproteins of nonhuman primates and have compared them with their human counterparts.

Expression Profiles of Endogenous Retroviruses in Old World Monkeys

open access: yes, 2006
Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are a major component of the human genome and an active part of the transcriptome. Some HERVs play vital biological roles, while others potentially contribute to diseases. Many HERVs are relatively new in the primate

The genetics of New World monkey visual pigments. [PDF]

open access: yesPsychology & Neuroscience, 2013
color vision, having at least two cone photopigment types with different spectral sensitivities present in distinct photoreceptors is necessary together with the neural circuitry necessary to extract color information. Visual pigments are highly conserved molecules, but differences can be found among vertebrate groups.

Referential alarm calling behaviour in New World primates

open access: yesCurrent Zoology, 2012
There is relatively good evidence that non-human primates can communicate about objects and events in their environment in ways that allow recipients to draw inferences about the nature of the event experienced by the signaller. In some species, there is

ZOONOTIC PARASITES OF OLD AND NEW WORLD MONKEYS: A REVIEW [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology
Generally, the wildlife health assessments help in identifying populations at risk of starvation,vector-borne infectious diseases, declining from anthropogenic impacts on natural habitats. A zoonoticdisease is a disease or infection transmitted naturally

The Vomeronasal Organ of New World Monkeys (Platyrrhini) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 2011
AbstractAlthough all platyrrhine primates possess a vomeronasal organ (VNO), few species have been studied in detail. Here, we revisit the microanatomy of the VNO and related features in serially sectioned samples from 41 platyrrhine cadavers (14 species) of mixed age.

Campbell's monkeys use affixation to alter call meaning

open access: yes, 2009
Human language has evolved on a biological substrate with phylogenetic roots deep in the primate lineage. Here, we describe a functional analogy to a common morphological process in human speech, affixation, in the alarm calls of free-ranging adult ...

Fatal Infection of a Pet Monkey with Human herpesvirus 1

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
Concerns have been raised about pet monkeys as a potential threat to humans. We report the opposite situation, a danger to pets that arises from humans.

Divergent evolution and purifying selection of the H (FUT1) gene in New World monkeys (Primates, Platyrrhini)

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2004
In the present study, the coding region of the H gene was sequenced and analyzed in fourteen genera of New World primates (Alouatta, Aotus, Ateles, Brachyteles, Cacajao, Callicebus, Callithrix, Cebus, Chiropotes, Lagothrix, Leontopithecus, Pithecia ...

Face selective patches in marmoset frontal cortex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
In Old World primates, socially relevant face processing is accomplished via a distributed functional network including specialized patches in the frontal cortex.
