experimental central serous chorioretinopathy in monkey eyes: fluorescein angiographic findings. | in an adult japanese monkey (macaca fuscatus), intravenous injections of adrenalin were repeated daily: 0.125 mg/kg for 7 days and 0.375 mg/kg from the 11th day on. in a cynomolgus monkey (macaca irus), daily injections were carried out with intravenous adrenalin (0.11 mg/kg for 12 days and a double dose from the 13th day on) and also with intramuscular prednisolone. after the 39th injection in the former and after the 32nd injection in the latter monkey, disciform serous retinal detachment was ... | 1982 | 7133631 |
vasectomy: "the most unkindest cut of all"? | attention in this discussion is directed to an increasingly disputable method of sterilization, i.e., vasectomy, and more particularly to its possible causal relationship to atherosclerosis. despite the fact that vasectomy is now in vogue worldwide and that healthy young men are undergoing a procedure of possible serious longterm morbidity, no conclusive studies are available concerning the subject. suggestive results of laboratory studies and reasoned opinions are available for consideration. ... | 1982 | 7135186 |
specificity of natural antibodies reactive with streptococcus mutans in monkeys. | enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to measure levels of natural antibody to defined antigens of streptococcus mutans in sera from monkeys (macaca fascicularis). the results suggest that most of the antibody in young monkeys that binds to whole bacteria is not specific to s. mutans. | 1982 | 7056586 |
synaptic organization of the dopaminergic neurons in the retina of the cynomolgus monkey. | dopaminergic neurons have previously been demonstrated in the retina of cynomolgus monkeys (macaca fascicularis) by fluorescence microscopy. these neurons take up 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine, which alters their ultrastructure, and this technique has been used in the present study to identify the dopaminergic retinal neurons in the electron microscope. there are no indoleamine-accumulating neurons in the cynomolgus monkey retina to interfere with the analysis of the dopaminergic cells. the dopaminerg ... | 1982 | 7056626 |
heterogeneity in epidermal basal keratinocytes: morphological and functional correlations. | two structurally distinct populations of basal keratinocytes, nonserrated and serrated, were observed in cynomolgus monkey and human palm epidermis. anatomical location, fine structural features, and kinetic properties suggest that nonserrated cells represent a stem cell population and that serrated cells help anchor the epidermis to the dermis. | 1982 | 7058342 |
antiplatelet therapy reduces aortic intimal hyperplasia distal to small diameter vascular prostheses (ptfe) in nonhuman primates. | while the use of prosthetic grafts in small diameter arterial reconstruction is required when suitable autogenous graft material is unavailable, late occlusion of prosthetic grafts caused by proliferative lesions has been described. this study evaluated the suitability of 3-mm (id) microporous polytetrafluoroethylene (ptfe) gore-tex grafts inserted in the abdominal aorta of eight nonhuman primates (macaca fascicularis), and the effects of prolonged antiplatelet treatment on both graft patency an ... | 1982 | 7059243 |

effect of serotonin, histamine and bradykinin on outflow facility following ciliary muscle retrodisplacement in the cynomolgus monkey. | cynomolgus monkeys with surgically untouched, aniridic, or ciliary muscle disinserted eyes underwent two-level constant pressure perfusion of the anterior chamber to determine total outflow facility before and after intracameral infusion of bradykinin triacetate (0.1, 1, 10 micrograms), histamine dihydrochloride (1, 10, 100 micrograms), or serotonin creatinine sulfate (1, 10, 100 micrograms). bradykinin had no effect on facility in non-disinserted eyes, but significantly decreased facility in di ... | 1982 | 7151886 |
responses of primate spinothalamic neurons located in the sacral intermediomedial gray (stilling's nucleus) to proprioceptive input from the tail. | extracellular an intracellular recordings were obtained from 24 spinothalamic neurons located in the intermediomedial gray (stilling's nucleus) in the s2 and s3 spinal segments of anesthetized adult monkeys (macaca fascicularis). most units were spontaneously active. they lacked cutaneous receptive fields but could be excited by subcutaneous receptors. bending the tail to one side of the animal's body axis excited cells located on the contralateral side of the cord an inhibited ipsilateral cells ... | 1982 | 7059828 |
the risk of hepatic artery embolization in the presence of obstructive jaundice. | rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys were used as experimental subjects to determine the extend to which the presence of biliary obstruction increases the risk of hepatic necrosis following hepatic artery embolization. it was found that peripheral hepatic artery embolization without biliary obstruction resulted in acute hepatic swelling and dysfunction and chronic focal infarction with bile cyst formation. however, massive hepatic necrosis and bile lakes were not seen. distal common bile duct obstructi ... | 1982 | 7063748 |
systemic lupus erythematosus-like syndrome in monkeys fed alfalfa sprouts: role of a nonprotein amino acid. | hematologic and serologic abnormalities similar to those observed in human systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) developed in cynomolgus macaques fed alfalfa sprouts. l-canavanine sulfate, a constituent of alfalfa sprouts, was incorporated into the diet and reactivated the syndrome in monkeys in which an sle-like syndrome had previously been induced by the ingestion of alfalfa seeds or sprouts. | 1982 | 7071589 |
specialized cell types and their regional distribution in the conjunctival epithelium of the cynomolgus monkey. | in the superficial layer of the conjunctival epithelium of cynomolgus monkeys, five different cell types were found. the cell types were distinguished by ultrastructural criteria (e.g., cell organelles and cytoplasma) and are defined as follows: type i are the goblet cells; type ii is characterized by the content of small electron-dense granules type iii is particularly rich in golgi material, type iv contains a specifically large amount of er; type v shows an exceptionally large number of mitoc ... | 1982 | 7075962 |
increased left atrial pressure does not alter renal function in the conscious primate. | to study the functional role of the atriorenal reflex in the nonhuman primate, we chronically instrumented six macaca fascicularis with left atrial snares and left atrial and aortic catheters. after inserting a bladder catheter, we determined hemodynamic and renal responses of the conscious chair-restrained monkey to increased left atrial pressure. in 23 snare experiments, no significant changes in renal or cardiovascular function were observed even though left atrial pressure increased from 6.5 ... | 1982 | 7091384 |
choroidal blood flow ii. reflexive control in the monkey. | temperature measurements were taken from (1) the retina-choroid in the macula, (2) the scleral surface, or (3) the bulbar conjunctiva of the cynomolgus monkey, while the fellow eye was exposed to a moderate-intensity light source. light stimulation produced an increase in tissue temperature in the non-light-stimulated eye. the increase in tissue temperature presumably results from a reflexive increase in choroidal blood flow. hydrogen washout measurements of blood flow in the retina-choroid conf ... | 1982 | 7103819 |

structure and composition of the oral mucous membrane on the lips and cheeks of the monkey, macaca fascicularis. | in seven monkeys (6 macaca fascicularis, 1 m. mulatta; 2.4 +/- 0.6 kg in weight) the labial and buccal mucosae were studied morphologically and quantitatively. following fixation by perfusion, the upper and lower lips and entire cheeks were dissected free and processed for light-, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. established programs (histomep, mumana ii) and appropriate morphometric techniques were used to estimate, at the light-microscopic level, the epithelial thickness, the wid ... | 1982 | 7094014 |
bone marrow depletion as a coincidental finding to hypothermia in macaca mulatta. | three of 16 juvenile rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta) and 1 rhesus of 79 adult rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys (macaca fascicularis) were found comatose in a state of profound hypothermia after a heating failure occurred in the room in which they were housed. one juvenile monkey died shortly thereafter. the three other monkeys were revived with gradual warming and supportive therapy but later experienced separate acute clinical crises manifesting shock and died at 19, 31, and 51 days after the init ... | 1982 | 7183763 |
an automated technique for the radiographic determination of bone age. | we have developed an automated procedure for determining bone-age in the monkey, macaca fascicularis. the status of epiphysial junctions and sesamoids were determined from radiographs. epiphyses were scored as either open or closed, and sesamoids were scored as either present or absent. bone-age was calculated by a computer program that stored and used a data base of probabilities for epiphysial closure and sesamoid appearance. the simplicity of scoring, combined with the speed and accuracy of t ... | 1982 | 7183764 |
biologic activity of cell-associated staphylococcal enterotoxin a. | cell associated staphylococcal enterotoxin a, released by lysostaphin treatment of staphylococcus aureus cells, was found to be biologically active in cynomolgus monkeys. the activity was comparable to that of extracellular enterotoxin a; six of six monkeys vomited within 5 h in response to extracellular enterotoxin and four of six also vomited in response to the same serologic level (4.8 micrograms per monkey) of cell-associated enterotoxin. feeding s. aureus cells containing cell-associated en ... | 1982 | 7183765 |
a flexible restraint chair for the cynomolgus monkey (macaca fascicularis). | we have found that commercial restraint chairs suitable for the rhesus monkey (macaca mulatta) cause severe physical distress to many cynomolgus monkeys (macaca fascicularis). a new restraint chair has therefore been designed specifically for the cynomolgus. the key features of the chair are an angled neck piece, a large opening to provide free movement for the tail, a soft waist restraint, and a level surface for both the heels and ischial pads. this new chair is not only suitable for the cynom ... | 1982 | 7183766 |
radiation-induced chromosome aberrations in lymphocytes from man and crab-eating monkey. the dose-response relationships at low doses. | to obtain information on the relation between yield of chromosome aberrations and dose at low-dose levels, experiments were conducted with 5, 10, 20, 30 and 50 rad of 137cs gamma-rays, on lymphocytes from man and crab-eating monkey (macaca fascicularis). the dose-response relationship for dicentrics was obtained from the combined data of these low-dose experiments with those of our previous ones at high doses (100-400 rad). when the difference between observed yields and those expected from the ... | 1982 | 7099186 |
lipoprotein metabolism during acute inhibition of hepatic triglyceride lipase in the cynomolgus monkey. | the role of the enzyme hepatic triglyceride lipase was investigated in a primate model, the cynomolgus monkey. antisera produced against human postheparin hepatic lipase fully inhibited cynomolgus monkey posttheparin plasma hepatic triglyceride lipase activity. lipoprotein lipase activity was not inhibited by this antisera. hepatic triglyceride lipase activity in liver biopsies was decreased by 65-90% after intravenous infusion of this antisera into the cynomolgus monkey. after a 3-h infusion of ... | 1982 | 7174789 |
aortic changes in cynomolgus monkeys fed high-fat diets (long-term study). | two diets containing either a lard-corn oil mixture (lco) or partially hydrogenated herring oil (phho) were fed to cynomolgus monkeys (macaca fascicularis) for up to 30 months. serum cholesterol values rose to 180 mg/dl in the lco-group and to 260 mg/dl in the phho-group. serum lipoprotein concentrations were normal in the lco-group, but phho-fed monkeys had lower hdl- and higher ldl- and vldl-proportions. only one animal on the lco-diet for 24 months developed a pre-atherosclerotic lesion in th ... | 1982 | 7184492 |
experimental central serous chorioretinopathy. iii: ultrastructural findings. | experimental central serous chorioretinopathy was produced in a cynomolgus monkey. the sites of the outer blood retinal barrier coinciding with the spots of fluorescein leakage as confirmed by fluorescein angiography were examined by light and electron microscopy. degeneration of a few retinal pigment epithelial cells was found, suggesting that the leakage of fluorescein into the subretinal space resulted from the disruption of the outer blood retinal barrier due to degeneration of the retinal p ... | 1982 | 7166899 |

isolation and identification of spirorenone metabolites from the monkey (macaca fascicularis). | the plasma level of spirorenone was determined 3 h after 1, 8, 22 and 46 daily oral administrations of 20 mg/kg to two female and two male monkeys (macaca fascicularis). a fifth animal, female, was treated with eight daily doses of tritium-labelled drug and was completely bled from the carotid vein 4 h after the last administration in order to isolate and identify plasma metabolites. after repeated daily doses of spirorenone the mean plasma level of unchanged drug was 711 +/- 213 ng/ml. in the p ... | 1982 | 7157447 |
pharmacokinetic studies on quinacrine following intrauterine administration to cynomolgus monkeys. | recent efforts have been made to develop a chemical oviductal occluding agent. intrauterine quinacrine has been used in certain areas of the world with moderate success in effected tubal closure. this report presents the pharmacokinetics of a quinacrine solution (30 mg) as administered to cynomolgus monkeys via the intrauterine route, compared with intravascular injection. the data show rapid transfer of the drug from the uterine to the vascular compartment and uptake by almost all tissues exami ... | 1982 | 7141014 |
[cerebrosides and sulfocerebrosides in the brain of the macaque macaca fascicularis]. | the content of cerebrosides and sulfocerebrosides has been determined in the whole brain, in the gray and white matter of the cerebral hemispheres of the macaque. fatty acid composition and long chain bases of these sphingolipids in the whole brain were also investigated. the species studied belongs to the order of higher primates, the family of lower old world monkeys. in the whole brain, rather high content of both sphingolipids was found, the cerebral white matter being the richer. cerebrosid ... | 1982 | 7158154 |
a relative volumetric analysis of the lateral geniculate nucleus after enucleation. | the relative volumes occupied by nerve cell somata, axons, myelin, the remaining neuropil, glial cell nuclei, blood vessels and degenerating terminals have been determined in the foveal and parafoveal portions of laminae 5 and 6 of the monkey (macaca fascicularis) lateral geniculate nucleus, in control animals and at varying times after unilateral enucleation. the proportions occupied by these tissue components are very similar within the same lamina of all control animals, but differ significan ... | 1982 | 7158801 |
the squirrel monkey: receptor-mediated end-organ resistance to progesterone? | fertile females of a new world primate species, the squirrel monkey (saimiri sciureus), have plasma progesterone concentrations that vary between 57 and 510 ng/ml during the reproductive cycle and are 10- to 20-fold higher than those seen in cynomolgus monkeys (macaca fascicularis) and other old world primates, including man. the plasma progesterone level during pregnancy is high and varies between 140 and 490 ng/ml. estradiol levels during the reproductive cycle and pregnancy are also higher th ... | 1982 | 7200992 |
lack of enhanced nocturnal growth hormone release in tethered cynomolgus monkeys. | to determine spontaneous 24-h patterns of growth hormone (gh) plasma levels in unsedated and unrestrained nonhuman primates, a jacket and tethering system were used to study six cynomolgus monkeys. hourly blood samples were collected, and body temperatures were recorded over 24-h periods. measurements of gh were made on all samples. in one 24-h study cortisol levels were also measured as well to document a normal circadian rhythm. gh was released at mean intervals of 4.5 +/- 0.47 h (mean +/- se) ... | 1982 | 7202336 |
electrical activity of the pregnant uterus in the cynomolgus monkey. | electromyographic activity in six pregnant cynomolgus monkeys was recorded in vivo by means of bipolar electrodes individually attached to the surface of the uterine corpus. these data were compared with recordings of intra-amniotic pressure obtained simultaneously by means of an open-ended, fluid-filled catheter placed in the amniotic cavity. during the last third of pregnancy, the electromyograms showed recurrent electrical complexes (trains of potentials, top) which lasted for about 2 minutes ... | 1982 | 7199259 |
increased efficiency of group b coxsackievirus isolation from clinical specimens by use of bgm cells. | a continuous african green monkey kidney cell line, designated bgm, was compared with primary cynomolgus monkey kidney cells and human embryonic lung cells for efficiency of enterovirus isolation. a selective enhanced sensitivity of bgm cells both in terms of isolation rate and speed of isolation was found for group b coxsackieviruses but could not be demonstrated for a number of other nonpolio enteroviruses. | 1982 | 16789270 |
detection of early atherosclerosis in m. fascicularis with transcutaneous ultrasonic measurement of the elastic properties of the common carotid artery. | the elastic properties of 22 common carotid arteries from 13 male cynomolgus monkeys (m. fascicularis) that were fed either a high cholesterol (test) diet or a standard monkey chow (control) diet for 18 months were measured noninvasively with 5 mhz ultrasound. a b-mode image of the artery was obtained with a 32-element linear array transducer, and a single line of video ultrasonic information was selected for tracking the echoes from the adventitial side of the near wall to the lumen-intima inte ... | 1982 | 15226937 |
