Evaluation of environmental and intrinsic factors that contribute to stereotypic behavior in captive rhesus macaques (.

Applied animal behaviour science

Gottlieb DH, Maier A, Coleman K.
PMID: 27034527
Appl Anim Behav Sci. 2015 Oct 01;171:184-191. doi: 10.1016/j.applanim.2015.08.005.

Full body repetitive behaviors, known as motor stereotypic behaviors (MSBs), are one of the most commonly seen abnormal behaviors in captive non-human primates, and are frequently used as a behavioral measure of well-being. The main goal of this paper...

Testosterone increases circulating dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels in the male rhesus macaque.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Sorwell KG, Kohama SG, Urbanski HF.
PMID: 25009533
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2014 Jun 25;5:101. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00101. eCollection 2014.

The adrenal steroid dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate (DHEAS) are two of the most abundant hormones in the human circulation. Furthermore, they are released in a circadian pattern and show a marked age-associated decline. Adult levels of DHEA and...

The role of maternal obesity in the risk of neuropsychiatric disorders.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Rivera HM, Christiansen KJ, Sullivan EL.
PMID: 26150767
Front Neurosci. 2015 Jun 18;9:194. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2015.00194. eCollection 2015.

Recent evidence indicates that perinatal exposure to maternal obesity, metabolic disease, including diabetes and hypertension, and unhealthy maternal diet has a long-term impact on offspring behavior and physiology. During the past three decades, the prevalence of both obesity and...

The Impact of Maternal High-Fat Diet Consumption on Neural Development and Behavior of Offspring.

International journal of obesity supplements

Sullivan EL, Nousen EK, Chamlou KA, Grove KL.
PMID: 26069734
Int J Obes Suppl. 2012;2:S7-S13. doi: 10.1038/ijosup.2012.15.

Maternal diet and metabolic state are important factors in determining the environment experienced during perinatal development. Epidemiological studies and evidence from animal models provide evidence that a mother's diet and metabolic condition are important in programming the neural circuitry...

High-fat diet consumption during pregnancy and the early post-natal period leads to decreased α cell plasticity in the nonhuman primate.

Molecular metabolism

Comstock SM, Pound LD, Bishop JM, Takahashi DL, Kostrba AM, Smith MS, Grove KL.
PMID: 24024126
Mol Metab. 2012 Nov 14;2(1):10-22. doi: 10.1016/j.molmet.2012.11.001. eCollection 2012.

We investigated the impact of poor maternal nutrition and metabolic health on the development of islets of the nonhuman primate (NHP). Interestingly, fetal offspring of high fat diet (HFD) fed animals had normal total islet and β cell mass;...

Effect of an obesogenic diet on circadian activity and serum hormones in old monkeys.

Endocrine connections

Urbanski HF, Mueller K, Bethea CL.
PMID: 28619884
Endocr Connect. 2017 Aug;6(6):380-383. doi: 10.1530/EC-17-0108. Epub 2017 Jun 15.

Like women, old female rhesus macaques undergo menopause and show many of the same age-associated changes, including perturbed activity/rest cycles and altered circulating levels of many hormones. Previous studies showed that administration of an estrogen agonist increased activity in...

Nonhuman Primate Models of Chikungunya Virus Infection and Disease (CHIKV NHP Model).

Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland)

Broeckel R, Haese N, Messaoudi I, Streblow DN.
PMID: 26389957
Pathogens. 2015 Sep 16;4(3):662-81. doi: 10.3390/pathogens4030662.

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a positive-sense RNA virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. CHIKV is a reemerging Alphavirus that causes acute febrile illness and severe and debilitating polyarthralgia of the peripheral joints. Huge epidemics and the rapid spread of CHIKV...

One-Pot Covalent Grafting of Gelatin on Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Hydrogel to Enhance Endothelialization and Hemocompatibility for Synthetic Vascular Graft Applications.

ACS applied bio materials

Rizwan M, Yao Y, Gorbet MB, Tse J, Anderson DEJ, Hinds MT, Yim EKF.
PMID: 32656504
ACS Appl Bio Mater. 2020 Jan 21;3(1):693-703. doi: 10.1021/acsabm.9b01026. Epub 2019 Nov 19.

Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death worldwide. Patency rates of clinically-utilized small diameter synthetic vascular grafts such as Dacron® and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) to treat cardiovascular disease are inadequate due to lack of endothelialization. Sodium trimetaphosphate (STMP)...

Increased Maternal Prenatal Adiposity, Inflammation, and Lower Omega-3 Fatty Acid Levels Influence Child Negative Affect.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Gustafsson HC, Holton KF, Anderson AN, Nousen EK, Sullivan CA, Loftis JM, Nigg JT, Sullivan EL.
PMID: 31632234
Front Neurosci. 2019 Oct 01;13:1035. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2019.01035. eCollection 2019.

OBJECTIVE: Increased maternal adiposity during pregnancy is associated with offspring risk for psychiatric disorders. Inflammation secondary to adiposity is believed to be an important mechanism through which this effect occurs. Although increased adiposity introduces risk, not all children of...

An Exploration of the Relationships Among Facial Dimensions, Age, Sex, Dominance Status, and Personality in Rhesus Macaques (.

International journal of primatology

Altschul DM, Robinson LM, Coleman K, Capitanio JP, Wilson VAD.
PMID: 32747846
