Should I stay or should I go? Individual movement decisions during group departures in red-fronted lemurs [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Collective movements are essential for maintaining group cohesion. However, group members can have different optimal departure times, depending on individual, social and contextual factors whose relative importance remains poorly known.

Automated urinalysis technique determines concentration of creatine and creatinine by colorimetry [PDF]
, 1967 Continuous urinalysis technique is useful in the study of muscle wastage in primates. Creatinine concentration in urine is determined in an aliquot mixture by a color reaction. Creatine is determined in a second aliquot by converting it to creatinine and

Apparent mass of small children: Modelling [PDF]
, 2007 Mass-spring-damper models are widely available for quantifying the whole-body vibration characteristics of primates, human adolescents and human adults, but no models have previously been developed for small children.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The αvβ3‐mediated SPRC@MPDA‐RGD targets broken endothelial cells and controllably releases SPRC. CSE is then activated to produce endogenous H2S, which inhibits ferritinophagy. In brief, H2S inhibits autophagy by activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, thereby suppressing the ferroptosis process mediated by NCOA4, and ultimately promoting the ...

Evolutionary analysis of CD300A and CD300C paired receptors in primates
Frontiers in ImmunologyIntrodctionThe CD300 family comprises immunoglobulin superfamily receptors that regulate immune cell function through inhibitory or activating signals. CD300A and CD300C form a paired receptor system that recognizes shared ligands but mediates opposing ...

Comparing the cost-effectiveness of methods for estimating population density for primates in the Amazon rainforest Peru [PDF]
, 2015 With increasingly extreme fluctuations in flood levels in the Amazon basin (Malhi et al. 2008, Marengo et al. 2012, Bodmer et al. 2014) the future of its' fauna is becoming more uncertain.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study provides a translational approach for linking neural activity to tactile deficits in autism. By combining psychophysics with cortical recordings in a mouse model of autism, we show that low signal‐to‐noise ratio in somatosensory neurons weakens population encoding of fine touch, impairing detection, decoding, and leading to perceptual ...

Factors influencing the accuracy and precision in dating single gene trees
Peer Community JournalMolecular dating is the inference of divergence time from genetic sequences. Knowing the time of appearance of a taxon sets the evolutionary context by connecting it with past ecosystems and species.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Human‐relevant methods are essential for modern chemical safety assessment. This study helps define the capabilities and boundaries of an in vitro testing battery for developmental neurotoxicity by exploring its biological applicability domain. By linking neurodevelopmental disease‐related pathways to key neurodevelopmental processes, the work enhances
