fetal sex ratio in the rhesus (macaca mulatta).fetal sex ratio was determined in several hundred timed macaca mulatta pregnancies terminated by hysterotomy between 75 and 179 days' gestation. from 75 to 149 days' gestation a greater number of females occurred in utero, while after 150 days a greater number of males was observed. however, this difference was not statistically significant.1979116948
rhesus monkey aqueous humor composition and a primate ocular perfusate.the composition of rhesus monkey aqueous humor has been studied in large-volume, pooled samples. replicate determinations of the concentrations of a number of constituents have been carried out for both aqueous humor and serum from large veins by means of automatic analyzing equipment. since aqueous humor has been obtained by anterior chamber paracentesis, it is a mixture of anterior and posterior chamber aqueous. when compared to serum, the pooled aqueous contains an excess of chloride, bicarb ...1979116968
porous titanium endosseous dental implants in rhesus monkeys: microradiography and histological evaluation.artificial tooth roots with porous surface coatings were fabricated by sintering spherical powder of titanium alloy to solid cylindrical cores. the tooth roots were implanted subgingivally in healed mandibular premolar extraction sites of fifteen rhesus monkeys. supracrestal abutments were screwed into pretapped holes in the superior aspect of the primary subgingival stage four to eight weeks after implantation of the root. clinical evaluations were performed monthly. ten animals were sacrificed ...1979117007
in vivo enhancement of dengue virus infection in rhesus monkeys by passively transferred antibody.five pairs of juvenile, dengue virus-susceptible rhesus monkeys were given normal or dengue-immune human cord-blood serum injected intravenously to a final dilution of 1:300. the pool of immune human cord-blood serum had a titer of antibody to dengue type 2 virus (d2v) of 1:140 in the plaque-reduction neutralization test and a titer of human monocyte infection enhancement of greater than 1:2,000,000. fifteen minutes after inoculation of serum, animals were infected with d2v (strain no. 16681). d ...1979117061
induction of allergic encephalomyelitis in rhesus monkeys treated with anti monkey thymocyte sera.treatment with rabbit anti-moneky thymus cell sera whether limited (3 days) or extensive (15 days), did not alter the development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (eae) in rhesus monkeys challenged with myelin basic protein or central nervous system tissue (cns) when compared to similarly challenged control monkeys treated with normal rabbit serum. no consistent difference in disease incidence or intensity as measured by incubation period, neurologic signs or cns pathology was observed ...1979117083
infection and transmission studies with plasmodium simiovale in the macaca mulatta monkey.six different anophelines--anopheles freeborni, an. b. balabacensis, an. maculatus, an. stephensi, an. atroparvus, and an. quadrimaculatus--were shown to be susceptible to infection with plasmodium simiovale when fed upon splenectomized macaca mulatta monkeys between the 1st and 26th days of patent parasitemia. transmission was obtained via the bites of an. b. balabacensis and an. maculatus mosquitoes. prepatent periods in m. mulatta monkeys following sporozoite inoculation ranged from 11 to 20 ...1979117087
kinetics of drug-drug interactions: biliary excretion of iodoxamic acid and iopanoic acid in rhesus monkeys.the dynamic method originally developed for studying the capacity-limited kinetics of the cholecystographic agents iodoxamic acid and iopanoic acid was applied to study the in vivo interactions of these two compounds following coadminstration in the monkey. results indicate that these interactions are complex. the compounds appear to compete for plasma protein binding sites as well as for binding sites on intrahepatic proteins. the biliary excretion data apparently fit the "ligand exclusion" mod ...1979117095
primaquine analogues: derivatives of 4-amino-2-methoxyacridine.based on the antimalarial activity of primaquine (1a) and its 4-methyl analogue 1b, 4-aminoacridinyl analogues, 4-[(4-amino-1-methylbutyl)amino]-2-methoxyacridine (2a) and 4-[(4-amino-1-methylbutyl)amino]-2-methoxy-9-methylacridine (2b), were prepared and evaluated as potential tissue schizonticidal agents. these compounds were found to be substantially less active than primaquine against plasmodium cynomolgi in the rhesus monkey. the antileishmanial activity in hamsters of 4-[[6-(diethylamino)h ...1979117105
a spontaneous outbreak of polychlorinated biphenyl (pcb) toxicity in rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta): clinical observations.a spontaneous, progressive disease occurred in a large domestic breeding colony of rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta). the disease was characterized by slow but continuous weight loss, alopecia, acne, facial edema, diarrhea and trauma from other monkeys. breeding efficiency was impaired with a high incidence of abortions and stillbirths. live offspring were small and unthrifty contributing to a high infant mortality rate. the cause of this disease was polychlorinated biphenyls (pcss) which were pre ...1979117226
a spontaneous outbreak of polycholorinated biphenyl (pcb) toxicity in rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta): toxicopathology.polychlorinated biphenyls (pcbs) were shown to be the cause of a wasting syndrome and reproductive dysfunction in a group of rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta). the polychlorinated biphenyls were found by gas chromatographic analysis in high amounts in the superficial layers of concrete slab floors in the housing facility. the concrete sealant was suspected as the original source although it is not known whether it contained polychlorinated biphenyls before it was applied or if it was contaminated ...1979117227

pure tone thresholds for the rhesus monkey.auditory thresholds were measured for 18 ears from 13 rhesus monkeys using a simple reaction-time procedure. the threshold contour was a smooth w-shaped function with rises at the extreme frequencies and around 4 khz and was comparable in shape with previously reported thresholds for this animal. standard deviations averaged 5.3 db.1978118150
annual rhythms of luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, prolactin and testosterone in the serum of male rhesus monkeys.six male rhesus monkeys were kept under rigidly controlled conditions for 1-2 years. during august of the first year a thyrotrophin releasing hormone (trh) test was performed on each of the monkeys by giving 10 microgram trh as a bolus injection. significantly increased serum prolactin levels occurred 15 min after the injection. after a training period of 2 months, during which blood samples were collected every other day by puncture of the saphenous vein, blood was collected three times a week ...1979118229
characterization of infection and replication of mason-pfizer monkey virus in human cell cultures.human cells derived from both normal and neoplastic tissues can be infected by mason-pfizer monkey virus (mpmv) without accompanying cytopathology. infection of cell cultures such as human rhabdomyosarcoma (a204) results in a persistenly infected cell line which can be subcultured over 30 sequential culture passages without significant change in phenotype properties according to reverse, transcriptase (rt), mpmv p27 antigen content, virus particle count and infectivity titre. productive virus in ...1979118235
synthesis of 4-alkyl and 4-(beta-alkylvinyl) derivatives of primaquine as potential antimalarials.4(beta-alkylvinyl)-6-methoxy-8-nitroquinolines (6) were prepared from 6-methoxy-8-nitroquinoline-4-carboxaldehyde (5) via a wittig reaction. stannous chloride reduction of 6 gave 4-(beta-alkylvinyl)-8-amino-6-methoxyquinolines (8), whereas catalytic reduction of 6 using raney nickel catalyst gave 4-alkyl-8-amino-6-methoxyquinolines (7). alkylation of 7 and 8 with 4-iodo-1-phthalimidopentane, followed by removal of the phthaloyl-protecting group with hydrazine, gave 4-alkyl and 4-(beta-alkylvinyl ...1979118257
a practicable immunological approach to block spermatogenesis without loss of androgens.the intrinsic capacity of the immune system to elicit immune response selectively against late developing sperm proteins has been mobilized to intercept spermatogenesis. bacillus calmette-guérin given in appropriate doses intratesticularly is effective in bringing about this effect. in dogs and rhesus monkeys, the sperm count in the semen declined precipitously, and almost complete azospermia was attained in 4-6 weeks after immunization. the few sperm cells that were present were immotile. exami ...1979118455
cholecystokinin suppresses sham feeding in the rhesus monkey.the satiety effect of slow intravenous infusions of impure cholecystokinin (cck) was investigated in 5 rhesus monkeys during sham feeding. cck suppressed sham feeding. the dose for 50% inhibition of sham feeding was about 10 u/kg-hr; 20 u/kg-hr abolished sham feeding. no dose produced retching, vomiting, diarrhea or other behavioral signs of toxicity. these results demonstrate the potency of cck for inhibiting feeding in the monkey when gastric, intestinal and postabsorptive mechanisms are not a ...1979118472
serum fsh, lh and testosterone in the male rhesus following prostaglandin injection.adult male rhesus were treated with pge2, pgf2 alpha or the 13,14-dihydro-15-keto metabolite of pge2 in a randomized crossover design. serum concentrations of fsh, lh and testosterone were determined and compared to the respective values in the same uninjected animals. no significant changes were noted in controls or following the metabolite injection. fsh increased gradually for 4 hours after metabolite treatment. in contrast, injection of pgf2 alpha was followed by an abrupt (within 15 minutes ...1979118486

massive doses of steroids in cryogenic cerebral injury and edema.cryogenic lesions were produced in the brains of rhesus monkeys and the accompanying edema measured by quantitative chemical methods. no effect on this type of edema could be demonstrated in animals treated with massive doses of steroids.1979118553
comparative studies on the pre- and postterminal blood vessels in the cerebellar cortex of rhesus monkey, cat, and rat.in the rhesus monkey, cat and rat, pial arteries give off branches which run vertically through all three layers of the cerebellar cortex. the large cortical arteries are surrounded by a perivascular space in the molecular layer. their wall consists of several layers of smooth-muscle cells and the luminal endothelium. as the arteries reach the deeper layers of the cerebellar cortex, the number of smooth-muscle cells is reduced. in the rat, sometimes no smooth-muscle cells are detectable in the p ...1979118682
branches of the aortic arch in the cynomolgus macaque (macaca fascicularis).the aortic arch branching patterns of 49 male macaques (macaca fascicularis) were described and classified according to the classification systems of degaris, and the incidence of each pattern was determined. the most frequent pattern observed was a two-branch type in which a truncus communis of intermediate length (7 to 11 mm) and the left subclavian artery constituted the only aortic arch branches. five patterns not previously described in the cynomolgus were observed. comparison of the cynomo ...1979118690
effects of increased testosterone secretion on the behavior of adult male rhesus living in a social group.selected members of an all-male social group of rhesus monkeys were treated with twice-weekly injections of human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) to determine the effects of the consequently increased androgen secretion on social behavior. radioimmunoassay of blood samples confirmed significant increases in serum testosterone levels in each of 4 subject, but only 3 of these showed significant behavioral changes. the basic social structure of the group, including the dominance hierarchy, was not dis ...1979118907
backward and forward masking in macaca mulatta.8 highly trained rhesus monkeys were examined on both backward and forward masking to determine the feasility of studying masking in unrestrained monkeys and of studying perceptual phenomenon without the confounding of linguistic variables. it was found that monkeys could respond well under the given conditions. the data indicated a more pronounced effect of the masking stimulus on backward masking than on forward masking.1979118909
establishing and maintaining clinically healthy gingivae in rhesus monkeys.the aim of the present investigation was to determine a method and a minimal frequency of plaque removal for the establishment and maintenance of clinically healthy gingivae in rhesus monkeys. six adult, male monkeys were used and divided into three groups. in each group different methods were used for plaque removal. frequencies of plaque removal of one, two and three times per week for consecutive weeks were tested. the results showed that gingival health could be established and maintained wi ...1979118986
acquisition of prerequisites to conservation by macaques.through a progressive series of learning sets, two rhesus macaques were trained to discriminate transformations that produce change of substance from other transformations and manipulations. several tests were administered to assess the generalization of this discrimination to a variety of objects and shapes and to assess the effects, if any, of size cues, experimenter familiarity, and various methods to problem presentation. after training was completed, performance was not greatly affected by ...1979119026
amniocentesis and antenatal sex determination in the rhesus monkey (macaca mulatta).antenatal sex was correctly identified in 87.5% of the rhesus monkeys studied by evaluation of sex chromatin bodies in the exfoliated cells present in amniotic fluid. fluid samples were obtained by either amniocentesis, amnioscopy, or by cesarean section at 80--120 days of gestation. amniotic fluid concentrations of progesterone, total estrogen, and testosterone were correlated with fetal sex. concentrations of these hormones decreased over the time period examined. amniocentesis is a simple pro ...1979119051
menetrier's disease in a rhesus monkey (macaca mulatta).gross and microscopic features closely resembling those found in menetrier's disease in man are described in a 20-month-old rhesus monkey. the gastric lining was characterized by greatly enlarged rugae caused by mucosal hypertrophy and hyperplasia along with outfolding of the muscularis mucosa and the submucosa. the mucosa and submucosa were infiltrated with inflammatory cells, mainly lymphocytes and plasma cells.1979119052

anaesthetic effects of various ratios of ketamine and xylazine in rhesus monkeys (macacca mulatta).intramuscular injection of selected ratios of ketamine and xylazine provided smooth anaesthetic induction, a wide safety margin, and no significant undersirable side effects. induction and recovery times, duration of anaesthesia, and thermoregulatory ability can be affected by different combinations of ketamine and xylazine. the addition of xylazine to ketamine increases muscle relaxation, recovery time, and duration of anaesthesia, while generally decreasing induction time and thermoregulatory ...1979119109
flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy of the rhesus monkey (macaca mulatta).using a flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope, 10 rhesus monkeys were bronchoscoped 30 times without complication. the bronchoscopic anatomy was found to be similar to that of the human except for the presence of a right cardiac lobe in the monkey.1979119111
a survey for anatrichosoma (nematoda: trichinellida) in wild-caught macaca mulatta.one hundred rhesus monkeys which were captured from two geographical sites were tested for anatrichosoma, a nematode that lives in the nasal passages. the monkeys were tested using both fecal examinations and nasal swabs. three percent of the monkeys from one site were positive, and 68% from the other site were positive. twenty-one percent of the animals tested by fecal examination were positive and 48% were positive using nasal swab examination.1979119112
chylothorax in rhesus monkeys with intravenous catheters.chylothorax associated with the use of indwelling intravenous catheters was diagnosed in 13 macaca mulatta. clinical signs were marked respiratory embarrassment or sudden death. lesions at necropsy included large quantities of sterile pleural fluid, pulmonary atelectasis and chronic fibrinous pleuritis. lipid was present in the effusion and in tissue sections of visceral pleura.1979119113
effects of satiety on self-stimulation of the orbitofrontal cortex in the rhesus monkey.self-stimulation of the orbitofrontal cortex of the rhesus monkey was found to be attenuated after the monkeys were fed to satiety. self-stimulation at some other sites (e.g. the nucleus accumbens septi, the region of the substantia nigra, and the caudate nucleus) was relatively unaffected in the same test sessions by the satiety. in recordings from single neurons in the monkey orbitofrontal cortex, neurons of the type found in the lateral hypothalamus with sustained responses associated with th ...1979119182
the crossed cortico-caudate projection in the rhesus monkey.in the normal young adult rhesus monkey, reduced silver staining of degenerating axons revealed that the lateral prefrontal cortex projects to the caudate nucleus of the contralateral hemisphere. this crossed prefronto-caudate projection provides a means whereby the prefrontal cortex can affect the neuronal activity of the extrapyramidal motor systems in both hemispheres. these findings also support the concept that apparent neuronal plasticity in this primate telencephalic system is a result of ...1979119189
experimental trypanosoma cruzi infection in rhesus monkeys 111. electrocardiographic and histopathological findings.in five rhesus monkeys surviving 'peru strain' or 'strain 7' trypanosoma cruzi infection for six to eight years, positive xenodiagnosis results and high indirect fluorescent antibody titres (4096 - 65536) persisted until the animals were killed. abnormal electrocardiograph patterns in two monkeys (h and k) were possibly compatible with myocardial damage. histopathological changes attributable to t. cruzi infection were minor in four monkeys but severe in one (r). in this animal, infected with wh ...1979119339

determination of 6-mercaptopurine and azathioprine in plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography.using 1-ml plasma samples, levels of 6-mercaptopurine (6mp) as low as 5 ng/ml and azathioprine (aza) as low as 40 ng/ml can be detected using a high-performance liquid chromatography reversed-phase column procedure following extraction. both compounds were stable in frozen plasma for seven weeks. aza stability in blood was temperature dependent; the half-lives of aza breakdown to 6mp at 37 degrees were 28 and 46 min in blood drawn from two rhesus monkeys. plasma levels of 6mp were measured in a ...1979120373
the mode of migration of neurons to the hippocampus: a golgi and electron microscopic analysis in foetal rhesus monkey.the mode of neuron migration from the site of their origin in the ventricular zone to area ca1 of the hippocampus was analysed with golgi and electron microscopic methods during the first half of gestation in the foetal rhesus monkey. in the inner portion of the intermediate zone, the migrating cells have a bipolar form with one, or oaccasionally two, leading processes which do not reach the ammonic plate and with a single trailing process which usually ends within the intermediate zone. both th ...1979120417
selection and pairing of 'normal' rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta) for research: procedures, techniques, and observations.a selection process has been developed by the authors to insure investigators that animal subjects used in their experiments will accurately reflect biological changes associated with the project design. the procedure involved the following: complete physical examination; complete hemogram, serum electrolytes, serum biochemistry, body weight; and anthropometric determinations; aging by dentition; electrocardiography; total-body radiography; fecal culture; fecal ova, and parasite examinations; an ...1979120443
differentiation of coital behavior in mammals: a comparative analysis.the evidence reviewed suggests that in all mammalian species the adult male's ability to display masculine coital behavior depends in part on exposure of the developing brain to testicular testosterone or its metabolites. in many mammals, particularly rodents, ruminants, and some carnivores, perinatal exposure to androgen also causes behavioral defeminization, i.e., reduced capacity to display typically feminine coital behavior in response to gonadal hormones in adulthood. the data reviewed sugg ...1979120519
effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin on indocyanine green blood clearance in rhesus monkeys.to assess effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (tcdd) on liver function adult male rhesus monkeys were treated with a single oral dose of acetone/corn oil (control) or 5, 25, or 75 micrograms/kg tcdd. each monkey was used as its own control and indocyanine green (icg) blood clearance and the following serum enzymes: glutamic pyruvate transaminase (sgpt), sorbitol dehydrogenase (sdh) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma gtp), were measured at regular intervals for 4 weeks before and ...1979120621
fractionation of plasmodium knowlesi-induced antigens of rhesus monkey erythrocyte membranes.in order to characterize parasite-induced host cell membrane antigens, the plasma membranes of plasmodium knowlesi-infected rhesus erythrocytes have been compared with those of normal red cells and purified schizonts by immunochemical and biochemical techniques. host cell membranes and schizonts were separated by differential centrifugation following nitrogen decompression. isolated schizonts were further fractionated into several subcellular compartments. crossed-immune electrophoresis, against ...1979120762
