| search for cea-like molecules in polymorphonuclear leukocytes of non-human primates using monoclonal antibodies. | the monoclonal anti-cea antibody zik-a42-a/c1 which reacts with nca of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes was found to bind also to polymorphonuclear blood leukocytes of the following non-human primates tested: hamadryas baboon (papio hamadryas), stump-tailed monkey (macaca arctoides), pig-tailed monkey (macaca nemestrina), and rhesus monkey (macaca mulata). no binding was observed to mononuclear blood leukocytes. it was concluded that non-human primates contain cea-like substances in their poly ... | 1986 | 3518651 |
| mycobacterium paratuberculosis infection in a colony of stumptail macaques (macaca arctoides). | mycobacterium paratuberculosis infection was documented in a colony of stumptail macaque monkeys (macaca arctoides), with 29 (76%) of 38 monkeys infected and shedding organisms in feces. thirteen deaths have occurred during the past five years. animals without overt clinical disease were shedding as many as 2 x 10(6) colony-forming units of m. paratuberculosis/g of feces. intestinal tissues from animals dying of this disease contained up to 10(8) colony-forming units of m. paratuberculosis/g of ... | 1987 | 3559275 |
| late effects of early binocular visual deprivation on the function of brodmann's area 7 of monkeys (macaca arctoides). | it has been shown earlier that binocular visual deprivation during the early sensitive period of life reduces the representation of visual functions in the posterior parietal association cortex of monkeys, in brodmann's area 7 (exp. brain res., 42 (1981) 1-8). moreover, the representation of somatic functions increases suggesting that competitive mechanisms between the inputs from different modalities function during the early sensitive period of life in area 7. the aim of the present study was ... | 1987 | 3594262 |
| low-dose aspirin protects against lipid accumulation in primate vein bypass grafts. | platelet inhibition with high-dose aspirin combined with dipyridamole reduces lipid accumulation and improves early patency of coronary artery bypass grafts. however, recent evidence suggests that platelet inhibition can be achieved with substantially lower aspirin doses than have been conventionally prescribed. to evaluate whether low-dose aspirin protects against lipid accumulation in bypass grafts, we studied 15 stump-tailed macaque monkeys in which autologous cephalic veins were grafted into ... | 1987 | 3613624 |
| physiological aspects of puberty in group-living stumptail monkeys (macaca arctoides). | physiological changes around the time of puberty were studied in a longitudinal manner in male and female stumptail macaques. in the male, testicular descent (mean age 3.3 years) is an early sign of puberty, which coincides with onset of the pubertal spurt in body weight and testis growth and precedes the pubertal rise in plasma testosterone. in the female no clear external signs of puberty have been found. measurements of plasma progesterone yielded proof of first ovulation (mean age 3.7 years) ... | 1987 | 3685152 |
| congenital malformations and twinning in a breeding colony of old world monkeys. | clinical and necropsy records of malformations in old world monkeys were compiled. the numbers of malformations and birth incidence rate for each species were: rhesus macaque (macaca mulatta) 3 (1.02%); cynomolgus macaque (macaca fascicularis) 11 (1.62%); stumptail macaque (macaca arctoides) 3 (1.55%); african green monkey (cercopithecus aethiops) 4 (1.5%). there was one pair of rhesus twins (twinning rate: 0.34%). cardiovascular and central nervous system lesions accounted for 55% of all malfor ... | 1987 | 3695398 |
| castration, sex steroids, and heterosexual behavior in adult male laboratory-housed stumptailed macaques (macaca arctoides). | the sociosexual behaviors of six stable male-female pairs of stumptailed monkeys were studied in half-hour pair tests. their performance before and after castration of the males was compared. the effects of replacement therapy with sex steroids on male-female interaction were studied. also the effects of new females as sexual partners were investigated. castration caused a significant decrease in sexual behavior. individual males could display ejaculatory behavior up to about 1 year postcastrati ... | 1986 | 3770656 |
| physiological changes during copulation in male and female stumptail macaques (macaca arctoides). | radiotelemetric recordings were made of uterine contractions in female stumptail macaques, and of heart and respiratory rate in stumptail monkeys of both sexes, before, during and after copulation. these data were fed into a multichannel recorder, along with a spoken record of behavioral changes. males' heart and respiratory rates were raised during penile thrusting, reached a peak and then fell sharply after ejaculation. uterine movements were similar during successive copulations. after uterin ... | 1986 | 3823209 |
| evaluation of pled as a chelating ligand in the preparation of gallium and indium radiopharmaceuticals. | the 68ga and 111in complexes of pled (n,n'-dipyridoxylethylenediamine-n,n'-diacetic acid) were prepared and their biodistribution determined as a function of time following i.v. injection into rats. the 68ga and 111in complexes behaved identically and were rapidly cleared from the blood via the kidneys into the urine. similar rapid urinary excretion was observed in the gamma images obtained from a stump-tailed macaque injected with 111in-pled. paper electrophoresis at ph 7.35 showed a single rad ... | 1985 | 3869126 |

| characterisation of a polyomavirus in two foetal rhesus monkey kidney cell lines used for the growth of hepatitis a virus. | electron microscopy and prolonged incubation of cell cultures have revealed the presence of a papovavirus in two foetal rhesus monkey kidney cell lines, frhk-4 and frhk-6, which are used to grow hepatitis a virus. the papovavirus, designated frkv, was present in culture fluids from both cell lines and in thin sections of frhk-4 cells. the size of the virus, 47 nm, places frkv within the polyomavirus genus. frkv has been grown in primary human embryo kidney and calf kidney cell cultures. haemaggl ... | 1984 | 6326710 |
| the relative influence of arterial pressure versus intraoperative distention on lipid accumulation in primate vein bypass grafts. | atherosclerotic degeneration has been well documented to be the limiting factor for long-term function of aortacoronary vein bypass grafts. injury, including that induced by pressure distention in preparation for grafting, is thought to play a role in this degeneration. injury can be minimized by limiting the distending pressure, but vein grafts are chronically subjected to arterial pressures that far exceed native venous pressure. we evaluated the relative influence of arterial pressure and of ... | 1985 | 3877215 |
| surgical correction of eyelid disfigurement in a stumptailed monkey (macaca arctoides). | self-aggression in an adult male stumptailed monkey (macaca arctoides) resulted in severe lower eyelid distortion, conjunctivitis and epiphora. the behavior ceased with a change in environment, but the eyelid defect, conjunctivitis and epiphora persisted, requiring corrective surgery. surgical correction was partially successful, although the animal died due to unrelated medical problems before final correction could be accomplished. | 1986 | 3959535 |
| sleep in macaca arctoides and the effects of prazosin. | polygraphic (eeg, eog, emg) 12-hr recordings were made in 3 adult monkeys (macaca arctoides) to document their normal sleep pattern and to examine the effects of prazosin, an alpha-1-adrenoceptor antagonist. in comparison to man, rem episodes appeared at shorter intervals (50 min) and they always ended in movement arousal or waking up. as in man the proportion of deep sleep decreased and the proportion of rem sleep increased towards morning. during eight hours after parenteral administration of ... | 1986 | 3016775 |
| immune responsiveness of monkeys exposed chronically to cigarette smoke. | eleven adult male stumptailed monkeys (macaca arctoides) were chronically exposed to either a low dose (human equivalent of 1 pack/day) or a high dose (human equivalent of 3 packs/day) of high-tar, high-nicotine university of kentucky reference cigarette smoke for 4-8 years. several parameters of their immunological response were compared to six nonsmoked control animals. the results from these experiments suggest that cigarette smoking does not significantly affect the response of spleen cells ... | 1985 | 4017293 |

| hypersensitivity pneumonitis in nonhuman primates. i. studies on the relationship of immunoregulation and disease activity. | we investigated the relationship of immunoregulation to disease activity in a nonhuman primate model of pigeon breeder's disease. two macaca arctoides monkeys developed classical symptoms of hypersensitivity pneumonitis after sensitization and prolonged bronchial challenge, whereas 2 other monkeys remained asymptomatic after in vivo challenge. there were no differences in the percentages of t cells, b cells, monocytes, or fc gamma-bearing t cells between symptomatic and asymptomatic animals. non ... | 1982 | 6172473 |
| studies on platelet aggregation inhibitors in vivo. x. relationship to thrombolysis. | human labeled fibrin clots were inserted into femoral veins of stumptailed monkeys (macaca arctoides). thrombolysis was slightly increased by treatment with the platelet aggregation inhibitor pentoxifylline. this agent significantly potentiated the thrombolytic effect of urokinase activated human plasminogen. pentoxifylline was also found to release plasminogen activator activity into the circulation. | 1982 | 6221055 |
| sertoli-leydig cell communication via an lhrh-like factor. | the primary function of the testosterone secreted by leydig cells is the maintenance of spermatogenesis and hence fertility. this action of testosterone is mediated by the sertoli cells which nourish and support the developing spermatozoa. as normal sertoli cell function is so critically dependent on normal leydig cell function, a regulatory influence of the sertoli cells on the leydig cells has been suggested. indeed, follicle-stimulating hormone (fsh), which acts only on sertoli cells, can als ... | 1981 | 6261155 |
| catechol estrogen formation in placental and fetal tissues of humans, macaques, rats and rabbits. | placental and fetal tissues obtained from humans, monkeys, rats and rabbits contained monooxygenases capable of catalyzing the formation of catechol estrogens. treatments of pregnant rats with phenobarbital, aroclor 1254, or 3-methylcholanthrene each increased measured rates of catechol estrogen formation in placentas, fetal brains and fetal livers, while other rat tissues exhibited either increased or decreased activity. treatment of pregnant rabbits with arocolor 1254 produced an increase in c ... | 1981 | 6265171 |

| an inverse relationship between plasma carnitine and triglycerides in selected macaca arctoides and macaca nemistrina fed a low-fat chow diet. | plasma carnitine and triglycerides were measured in five male macaca arctoides and one female macaca nemistrina during the course of feeding a low-fat (5.2% w/w), high carbohydrate diet and a high-fat (15.9% w/w), low carbohydrate diet. for each individual monkey, an inverse relationship was observed between plasma carnitine and triglyceride levels when the low-fat diet was fed but not when the high-fat diet was fed. the mechanism of the different responses to diet was not investigated but may b ... | 1984 | 6467897 |
| modification of reconciliation behavior through social experience: an experiment with two macaque species. | reconciliation, defined as a friendly reunion between former opponents shortly after an aggressive encounter, is common in the stumptail macaque (macaca arctoides) but rare in the rhesus macaque (m. mulatta). juveniles of the two species were cohoused for 5 months, after which they were observed with conspecifics only. control rhesus monkeys, matched in age and sex to the experimental subjects, went through the same procedure without exposure to the other species. a threefold increase in the pro ... | 1993 | 8339702 |
| ocular blood flow in phakic and aphakic monkey eyes. | alterations in regional ocular blood flow produced by topical epinephrine were studied in phakic and aphakic eyes of macaca arctoides using the radioactive microsphere technique. three isotopes were used to make sequential blood flow measurements just prior to topical epinephrine administration, 1 hr later and 3 hr later. significant reductions of flow were found in the iris, ciliary body, and optic nerve head of both phakic and aphakic groups. choroidal and posterior optic nerve flow decreased ... | 1984 | 6479247 |
| prevention of lipid accumulation in experimental vein bypass grafts by antiplatelet therapy. | the ameliorative effect of antiplatelet therapy on atherogenesis of vein grafts was assessed in autologous cephalic veins grafted into femoral arteries of 16 normolipemic and 11 hyperlipemic stump-tailed macaque monkeys. before grafting, one half of each vein was distended at high pressure (700 mm hg) and the other half at low pressure (350 mm hg). eight normolipemic monkeys were treated with aspirin, 80 mg/day, and dipyridamole, 50 mg/day, and eight were controls. when grafts were harvested at ... | 1982 | 6980060 |
| eye movements of monkeys during discrimination learning: role of visual scanning. | four experiments were conducted on stumptailed monkeys (macaca arctoides) to determine whether the high levels of visual scanning (shifts in fixation from one discriminative stimulus to the other) seen during discrimination learning play a necessary role in this learning. in experiments 1 and 2, the monkeys were given a series of two-choice, dot-pattern discrimination reversal problems. normal visual scanning before a choice response was allowed during all but the reversal trials of half of the ... | 1982 | 7057143 |

| primary structure of the active tryptic fragments of human and monkey salivary anionic proline-rich proteins. | the primary structures of the four human salivary anionic proline-rich proteins and an analogous protein from the saliva of a monkey (macaca arctoides) have been further investigated. these proteins possess the unusual property of inhibiting crystal growth of calcium phosphate salts, and it has been proposed that they play an important role in the mouth, by preventing precipitation of calcium phosphate salts from the supersaturated saliva. the tryptic fragments responsible for this activity have ... | 1981 | 7228490 |
| early detection of pregnancy in rhesus and stump-tailed macaques (macaca mulatta and macaca arctoides). evaluation of two radioimmunoassays and a hemagglutination inhibition test. | chorionic gonadotropin (mcg) in serum and urine of monkeys was determined by a radioimmunoassay and hemagglutination inhibition (hai subhuman primate tube test for pregnancy). hai-positive pregnancy tests coincided fully with the mcg excretion patterns as determined by ria (olh beta system). the least reliable system was the hcg-beta ria. the hai test allowed accurate prediction of the parturition date. | 1981 | 7343666 |
| annual plasma testosterone cycle and ejaculatory ability in the laboratory-housed crab-eating macaque (macaca fascicularis). | six fertile and healthy adult macaca fascicularis males were studied. radioimmunological assay of the plasma testosterone, sampled without anesthesia in the afternoon at the beginning of each month, showed an annual hormone cycle with a maximum (16.7 +/- 1.1 ng/ml) in the fall and a minimum (9.5 +/- 0.9 ng/ml) in the spring (fig. 1). using the ratio: number of ejaculations/number of trials, the ejaculatory ability of these animals (fig. 2) was estimated for 10 min in the presence of females betw ... | 1981 | 7349524 |
| effect of cocaine on sexual behaviour in male stumptail macaques (macaca arctoides). | the effect of cocaine (0.01-1.0 mg/kg) on sexual behaviour was studied in four male stumptail macaques (macaca arctoides). following drug-saline control administration, the behaviour of the male monkey with a female was observed for 30 min in two different behavioural conditions; in one of the conditions the baseline sexual activity was low, and in the other it was high (partial or complete separation of the male and the female between the sessions, respectively). the reversal of the cocaine-ind ... | 1995 | 7501667 |
| posterior neocortical systems subserving awareness and neglect. neglect associated with superior temporal sulcus but not area 7 lesions. | in humans and monkeys, the intraparietal sulcus separates the superior parietal lobule from the inferior parietal lobule (ipl). whereas in humans brodmann's area 7 is above this sulcus, in monkeys it is below and therefore part of the ipl. in humans, the ipl consists of brodmann's areas 39 and 40. some investigators contend that the monkey homologue of the human ipl (areas 39 and 40) is the monkey's ipl (area 7). others contend that it is, at least in part, in the monkey's superior temporal sulc ... | 1994 | 7944999 |
| characterization of a simian foamy virus isolated from a spontaneous primate lymphoma. | examination of tissues from a stump-tailed monkey (macaca arctoides) with a spontaneous lymphoid malignancy by light and electron microscopy confirmed the presence of a diffuse lymphoma of intermediate cell type. membranes showed positivity with anti-ia-like antisera and negativity with all other markers. in vitro cocultivation of affected tissues resulted in the isolation of an agent found to have properties idenitical to those described for simian foamy virus type 1. there was no evidence for ... | 1981 | 7345142 |
| cervical mucus penetration test for in vitro assay of vaginal contraceptive agents. | an in vitro penetration test employing bovine cervical mucosa to evaluate vaginal contraceptives is presented. its usefulness for the evaluation of the potency of a formulation in preventing sperm penetration was assessed by comparison of five commercially available preparations, with the use of both human and primate spermatozoa. the results were compared with those obtained with a spermicidal test (sander-cramer method) and in vivo with the use of the primate macaca arctoides. analysis of the ... | 1981 | 7286275 |
| potentiation of thrombolytic therapy by enzyme combinations and with aspirin or pentoxifylline. | radioactively labeled human fibrin clots were placed into veins of macaca arctoides monkeys. thrombolysis was recorded by the disappearance of radioactivity and by angiography. streptokinase (sk) and urokinase (uk) induced thrombolysis was potentiated by low dose aspirin (asa) and pentoxifylline (pe). studies on the mechanisms of action revealed that pe inhibits platelet aggregation, releases tissue plasminogen activator (t-pa) from the endothelium, increases red cell deformability and inhibits ... | 1994 | 7996060 |
| effects of policosanol chronically administered in male monkeys (macaca arctoides). | policosanol, administered orally, has shown a cholesterol-lowering effect in different experimental models. because lipid-lowering therapy is administered chronically, it is necessary to know the effects of these drugs after long-term administration. 18 adult male macaca arctoides monkeys were used to study the cholesterol-lowering effects and possible toxicity produced by oral administration of policosanol (0.25, 2.5 and 25 mg/kg) for 54 wk. after 8 wk, a significant reduction of serum total ch ... | 1994 | 8045464 |
| differences in performance of young and old monkeys on a visuospatial memory task. | two groups of stumptailed macaques (macaca arctoides) were compared in terms of performance on a visuospatial working memory task involving repeated presentations of an array of 15 doors, each of which concealed one food reward at the start of a session. rewards obtained by the subject were not replaced. errors were defined as responses to doors previously pushed open during the session. both groups generally obtained all rewards and showed improved performance across sessions, but old monkeys c ... | 1993 | 8272526 |
| the sukhumi primate monkey model for viral lymphomogenesis: high incidence of lymphomas with presence of stlv-i and ebv-like virus. | t-cell leukemia virus-like proviral sequences (stlv-i) as well as ebv-like sequences were detected in pbls and tissues of non-human primates (papio hamadryas baboons, green monkeys and macaca arctoides; sukhumi primate center/georgia) by pcr. surprisingly, two different types of stlv-i within papio hamadryas baboons were found. one of its represents the baboon prototype stlv-i-su described earlier, present in lymphomatous baboons from the "high-lymphoma stock", which shows about 83% homology to ... | 1993 | 8395624 |

| postcoital, vaginal, spermicidal potency of formulations: the macaca arctoides (stumptailed macaque) as animal model. | the macaca arctoides (stumptailed macaque) was found to be a good animal model for determining the postcoital spermicidal activity of vaginal preparations. the stumptailed macaque is easy to handle, so formulations can be inserted correctly into the vagina just before coitus. the male mates rapidly, and the entire test can be completed within 5 to 10 minutes, minimizing all extraneous factors other than those inherent to the reproductive tract and the coital act. data from postcoital breeding ex ... | 1981 | 7250395 |
| protection of normal tissues with 2-aminoethylisothiouronium during local pelvic radiation in monkeys. | intestinal and bladder injury are the main limiting factors to radiation therapy in patients with pelvic neoplasms. 2-amino-ethylisothiouronium (aet) is a radiation-protective agent when given systemically but absorbs poorly from the intestines. accordingly, it was explored for the local protection of the bowel and bladder during radiation to the pelvis. radiation localized to the pelvis in various high fractionated doses and various schedules was applied to pairs of stumptailed monkeys (macaca ... | 1983 | 6850597 |
| effects of spinal dorsal column transection on the response of monkey anterior parietal cortex to repetitive skin stimulation. | the pattern of 14c-2-deoxyglucose (2dg) labeling in anterior parietal cortex was evaluated in three groups of experimental subjects: (1) subjects in which all spinal pathways projecting at short latency to the contralateral hemisphere were intact, (2) subjects with either unilateral or bilateral transection of the dorsal column pathway, and (3) subjects in whom a two-stage tractotomy (dorsal column isolation) restricted short-latency mechanoreceptor drive to that conveyed via the dorsal column p ... | 1996 | 8670645 |
| molecular phylogeny of macaques: implications of nucleotide sequences from an 896-base pair region of mitochondrial dna. | we determined the nucleotide sequences of an 896-base pair region of mitochondrial dna (mtdna) from 20 primates representing 13 species of macaques, a baboon, and a patas. we compared these sequences and the homologous sequences from four macaques and a human against each other and deduced the phylogenetic relationships of macaques. the results from the phylogenetic analyses revealed five groups among the macaques: (1) barbary macaque, (2) two species of sulawesi macaques, (3) japanese, rhesus, ... | 1996 | 8752012 |
| discrimination learning and multiple reversals in young adult and older monkeys (macaca arctoides). | two groups of five young adult an older stumptailed macaques (macaca arctoides) were tested on a visual discrimination task followed by a reversal upon attainment of criterion; task and reversal were repeated until 20 reversals with the same pair of objects had been completed. both groups required more trials to learn the first reversal than the original discrimination, with no significant difference between the groups. older monkeys tended to show more perseverative errors on early reversals, b ... | 1996 | 8828396 |
| effects of hypertrichotic agents on follicular and nonfollicular cells in vitro. | our previous studies revealed that topical minoxidil induced an increased rate of dna synthesis in both dermal papilla and follicular germinal cells in early anagen and bulbar matrix as well as outer root sheath and perifollicular fibrocytic cells in mid and late anagen follicles in the bald scalp of the stump-tailed macaque. however, the epidermis and dermal fibrocytes showed no response. to determine the specific action of hypertrichotic agents on follicular cells, we examined the effects of t ... | 1996 | 8868027 |
| initiation of high dose gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonist treatment during the late follicular phase in the macaque abolishes luteal function irrespective of effects upon the luteinizing hormone surge. | the determination of the efficacy of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (gnrh) antagonists in blocking the luteinizing hormone (lh) surge and luteal function is important for our understanding of the control of the menstrual cycle and for clinical application. gnrh antagonists have failed to block the lh surge reliably in the non-human primate. the aim of the study was to utilize high dose gnrh antagonist treatment administered during the late follicular phase of the menstrual cycle to block the pr ... | 1997 | 9130734 |
| submitral atheromatous lesions in monkey and man. | posterior submitral recess (psmr) calcification is a common autopsy finding in elderly people, but its pathogenesis is undetermined. in this communication we show that, in part at least, the psmr changes at autopsy are atheroma-like with lipid around the sclerosis and calcific deposits. these changes in the psmr showed a statistically significant correlation with the presence of hypertension and with an autopsy finding of severe coronary atherosclerosis. we showed, for the first time, that simil ... | 1983 | 6851271 |
| molecular characterization and phylogenetic analyses of a new, highly divergent simian t-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (stlv-1marc1) in macaca arctoides. | a serological survey of a captive colony of asian monkeys indicated that six macaca arctoides had antibodies to human t-cell leukemia/lymphotropic viruses (htlv). over a 4-year interval, sera from these animals continued to exhibit a peculiar western blot (wb) pattern resembling an htlv-2 pattern (p24gag reactivity of equal or greater intensity than that of p19gag and a strong reactivity to recombinant gp21) but also exhibiting, in five of six cases, a reactivity against mta-1, an htlv-1 gp46 pe ... | 1997 | 9223528 |
| gnrh receptor mrna expression by in-situ hybridization in the primate pituitary and ovary. | gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (gnrh) receptors are present on the ovary as well as in the anterior pituitary gland. gnrh analogues may exert their actions in part via these ovarian receptors. however, in the primate ovary, gnrh receptors are of low affinity and their significance is questionable. the aim of the present study was to compare pituitary and ovarian expression of the gnrh receptor mrna by in-situ hybridization to gain further information on the possible significance of the ovarian ... | 1996 | 9238668 |

| phylogenetic relationships of the macaques (cercopithecidae: macaca), as revealed by high resolution restriction site mapping of mitochondrial ribosomal genes. | molecular phylogenetic relationships among all recognized species within the genus macaca, were assessed using high-resolution restriction site mapping of the mitochondrial ribosomal genes. by outgroup comparisons to other members of the cercopithecine subfamily, the macaques appear to be a monophyletic assemblage. within the genus, the relationships are in general consistent with previous genetic studies, though they are less concordant with the separation of the species into four distinct spec ... | 1998 | 9467779 |
| impaired detection of repetitive stimulation following interruption of the dorsal spinal column in primates. | transection of the dorsal spinal column in monkeys has been previously shown to spare detection, localization and a variety of discriminations between spatial attributes of tactile stimuli. in contrast, performance on certain tests involving stimulus sequences is substantially impaired, such as tactile direction sensitivity and frequency discrimination. the present study extends these findings to show that a repetitive cutaneous stimulus is undetectable following complete interruption of the ips ... | 1998 | 9730116 |
| sequence evolution of the ccr5 chemokine receptor gene in primates. | the chemokine receptor ccr5 can serve as a coreceptor for m-tropic hiv-1 infection and both m-tropic and t-tropic siv infection. we sequenced the entire ccr5 gene from 10 nonhuman primates: pongo pygmaeus, hylobates leucogenys, trachypithecus francoisi, trachypithecus phayrei, pygathrix nemaeus, rhinopithecus roxellanae, rhinopithecus bieti, rhinopithecus avunculus, macaca assamensis, and macaca arctoides. when compared with ccr5 sequences from humans and other primates, our results demonstrate ... | 1999 | 10486970 |
