Keratoconus in a Rhesus Monkey

Journal of Medical Primatology, 1987
A 15‐year‐old female rhesus monkey was observed to have bilaterally thinned and prominently curved corneas. Slit lamp observations, pachymetry, keratometry, and corneoscopy were consistent with a diagnosis of keratoconus, a relatively common corneal dystrophy in humans heretofore not described in a subhuman primate.

Neural basis of a perceptual decision in the parietal cortex (area LIP) of the rhesus monkey.

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2001
We recorded the activity of single neurons in the posterior parietal cortex (area LIP) of two rhesus monkeys while they discriminated the direction of motion in random-dot visual stimuli.

Endometriosis in rhesus monkeys

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1970
Abstract Twenty-one cases of endometriosis in the rhesus monkey are reported. In all but 2 cases, prior hysterotomy had been performed during pregnancy. The incidence of endometriosis increases with parity, age, increasing number of hysterotomies, and increased time since last pregnancy.

Endometriosis in rhesus monkeys

Laboratory Animals, 1982
9 Cases of endometriosis in rhesus monkeys were found in a colony of 35 females, which had undergone in the past X-ray treatment or one or more Caesarean sections and/or one or more treatments with gonadal steroids. Incidence, pathogenesis, clinical symptoms, histology and treatment are described.

Cholinergic innervation of cortex by the basal forebrain: Cytochemistry and cortical connections of the septal area, diagonal band nuclei, nucleus basalis (Substantia innominata), and hypothalamus in the rhesus monkey

The Journal of comparative neurology, 1983
The organization of projections from the cholinergic neurons of the basal forebrain to neocortex and associated structures was investigated in the rhesus monkey with the help of horseradish peroxidase transport, acetyl‐cholinesterase histochemistry, and ...

Epikeratoprosthesis in Rhesus Monkeys

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1970
The purpose of the epikeratoprosthesis (EKP) is to replace the corneal epithelium with an artificial substance. Theoretically, this could benefit many patients with corneal disease in whom keratoplasty was unsuccess­ ful or unwarranted. Although this concept is not new,' its advancement has been ham­ pered by a lack of suitable materials.

Evolutionary and Biomedical Insights from the Rhesus Macaque Genome

Science, 2007
The rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) is an abundant primate species that diverged from the ancestors of Homo sapiens about 25 million years ago. Because they are genetically and physiologically similar to humans, rhesus monkeys are the most widely used ...

The Rhesus System

1976
This chapter provides an overview on the Rhesus system. In 1940, Landsteiner and Wiener injected the red cells of the Rhesus monkey into rabbits and produced an antibody that not only agglutinated the monkey red cells, but also the red cells of approximately 85% of Caucasians. As these people apparently had an antigen similar to the Rhesus monkey these
