Chromosome Dynamics Regulating Genomic Dispersion and Alteration of Nucleolus Organizer Regions (NORs)

Cells, 2020
The nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) demonstrate differences in genomic dispersion and transcriptional activity among all organisms. I postulate that such differences stem from distinct genomic structures and their interactions from chromosome ...

NSD1 gene evolves under episodic selection within primates and mutations of specific exons in humans cause Sotos syndrome

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Modern human brains and skull shapes differ from other hominids. Brain growth disorders as micro- (ASPM, MCPH1) and macrocephaly (NFIX, GLI3) have been highlighted as relevant for the evolution in humans due to the impact in early brain ...

Differentiation of Trichuris species using a morphometric approach [PDF]

, 2019
Trichuris trichiura is a nematode considered as the whipworm present in humans and primates. The systematics of the genus Trichuris is complex. Morphological studies of Trichuris isolated from primates and humans conclude that the species infecting these

Infectious agents and reproductive disorders in non-human primates used as biomodels in animal experimentation

Pubvet, 2022
Reproductive disorders in non-human primates can be caused by a range of factors, in particular by infectious diseases. The literature review presented here aimed to identify the principal pathogens that can cause reproductive disorders in nonhuman ...

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders in neuronal xenotransplanted macaques [PDF]

, 2016
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid proliferations that occur in the setting of depressed T-cell function due to immunosuppressive therapy used following solid organ transplantation, hematopoietic ...

Rates of agonism among female primates: a cross-taxon perspective [PDF]

, 2013
Agonism is common in group-living animals, shaping dominance relationships and ultimately impacting individual tness. Rates of agonism vary considerably among taxa, however, and explaining this variation has been central in ecological models of female ...

Using Inhibitory DREADDs to Silence LC Neurons in Monkeys

Brain Sciences, 2022
Understanding the role of the noradrenergic nucleus locus coeruleus (LC) in cognition and behavior is critical: It is involved in several key behavioral functions such as stress and vigilance, as well as in cognitive processes such as attention and ...

Impact and Lessons Learned from A Half-Century of Primate Conservation Action Planning

Diversity, 2022
Over the last half-century, the world’s human population has doubled, impacting almost all ocean and land areas. The threats facing primates in the wild have never been greater or more complex.
