| rosette formation by plasmodium coatneyi-infected erythrocytes of the japanese macaque (macaca fuscata). | we studied in vitro the spontaneous rosette formation by red blood cells of a japanese macaque infected with plasmodium coatneyi, which occurred after 30 hr of incubation. rosette formation involved 88% of parasitized red blood cells (prbcs). spontaneous rosettes were formed when the ring-stage parasites developed into late trophozoites or schizonts. a rosette usually consisted of a prbc surrounded by three or more uninfected erythrocytes. electron microscopic examination revealed that interacti ... | 1995 | 7573716 |
| lipid profiles of cerebral gray matter and livers of macaque monkeys macaca fascicularis and macaca fuscata fuscata: a comparative study during development. | the lipid and fatty acid profiles in cerebral gray matter and livers were studied in macaque monkeys (macaca fascicularis and m. fuscata fuscata) of different ages. in cerebral gray matter, the phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylethanolamine (pc/pe) ratio decreased in animals more than 3 years old, while the cholesterol/lipid-phosphorus ratios and the unsaturation indices increased, as compared with those in fetuses and newborns. the level of 22:6n-3 in pe of cerebral gray matter increased up to 3 ... | 1995 | 7599973 |
| basal cell tumor in a japanese macaque (macaca fuscata). | a rare case of basal cell tumor of the skin in a wild-caught female japanese macaque (macaca fuscata) was studied. tumor growth, which was composed of cells resembling basal cells, was observed in the dermis and subcutis and showed a mixture of ribbon, solid, glandular, and cystic patterns. the tumor was separated from surrounding normal tissue by a compressed zone of fibrous connective tissue. the nuclei were round and hyperchromatic and possessed a single centrally located nucleolus. mitotic f ... | 1995 | 7604501 |
| reproductive senescence in female japanese monkeys (macaca fuscata): age- and season-related changes in hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian functions and fecundity rates. | age- and season-related changes in gonadotropin-gonadal functions were studied in captive female japanese monkeys (macaca fuscata fuscata), with special reference to reproductive senescence. in experiment 1, a total of 57 nonlactating females at ages 3-32 yr were used. blood samples were collected for at least one breeding season (september through march), and changes in plasma concentrations of lh, estradiol, and progesterone were examined. in experiment 2, two groups of females (older females, ... | 1995 | 7632833 |
| postcranial skeleton of a macaque trained for bipedal standing and walking and implications for functional adaptation. | the postcranial skeleton of a japanese macaque that had been trained for bipedalism over an 11-year period was studied. considerable modifications in the hindlimb bones caused by bipedal postural and locomotor behaviour were observed. changes occurred in joint morphology, articular dimensions and shape-dependent strength of long bones, reflecting the causal relationship between function and morphology. however, the conditions under which the modifications are developed are somewhat different fro ... | 1995 | 7665119 |
| microvascular pattern of the retina in the japanese monkey (macaca fuscata fuscata). | the microvascular architecture of the retina in the japanese monkey was revealed using scanning electron microscopy of microvascular corrosion casts. at the optic nerve disc, the central retinal artery radiated to four primary retinal arterioles: the superior and inferior temporal arterioles and superior and inferior nasal arterioles. a dense retinal capillary network showed regional differences in density. the capillary networks observed were divided in four parts: the optic nerve disc, macula, ... | 1994 | 7701308 |

| variations in fundamental frequency peak position in japanese macaque (macaca fuscata) coo calls. | japanese macaques (macaca fuscata) produce coo calls whose use in various contexts is correlated with differences in the relative temporal position of the peak value of a call's fundamental frequency (green, 1975). studies have produced conflicting results about both the location of the category boundary between smooth early high and smooth late high coo subtypes and macaques' perceptual sensitivity to variations in peak position. in this study, fundamental frequency peak positions were measured ... | 1994 | 7924259 |
| cervical ripening and uterine contraction induced by prostaglandin e2-gel in pregnant japanese monkeys (macaca fuscata fuscata). | effects of intracervical administration of pge2-gel were studied in pregnant japanese monkeys (macaca fuscata fuscata) near term. administration of pge2-gel induced cervical ripening and an increase in maternal plasma pge2 but no change in pgf2 alpha. ultrastructural observations of the connective tissue of the cervix after pge2-gel treatment revealed a decrease in the number of collagenous fibers. these results show that intracervical administration of pge2-gel induces cervical ripening without ... | 1994 | 7932635 |
| neural activities in the fronto-opercular cortex of macaque monkeys during tasting and mastication. | we recorded responses from 298 units in the fronto-opercular cortex (fop) of three japanese macaque monkeys. the units were activated while animals were drinking or eating. three types of units could be defined: units with transient responses to the delivery of all the fluid into the mouth (on-type units; n = 123); units activated in association with certain oral movements, e.g., licking (mo-type units; n = 90); and units responsive specifically to a certain fluid (taste units; n = 85). in both ... | 1994 | 7967217 |
| vocalizations of rhesus (macaca mulatta) and japanese (m. fuscata) macaques cross-fostered between species show evidence of only limited modification. | two rhesus and two japanese macaque infants were cross-fostered between species in order to study the effects of auditory experience on vocal development. both the cross-fostered and normally raised control subjects were observed over the first 2 years of life and their vocalizations were tape-recorded. we classified 8053 calls by ear, placed each call in one of six acoustic categories, and calculated the rates at which different call-types were used in different social contexts. species differe ... | 1993 | 8270122 |
| molecular anatomy of human chromosome 9: comparative mapping of the immunoglobulin processed pseudogene c epsilon 3 (ighep2) in primates. | karyotypic homology in relation to human chromosome 9 (hsa 9) was studied through comparative mapping of the immunoglobulin-processed pseudogene c epsilon 3 (ighep2) in primates. ighep2, which has been mapped to 9p24.2 --> p24.1 in the human genome, was assigned to ptr 11q34 (common chimpanzee), ppa 11q34 (pygmy chimpanzee), ppy 13q16 (orangutan), hla 8qter (white-handed gibbon), hag 8qter (agile gibbon), and mfu 14q22 (japanese macaque) by fluorescence in situ hybridization. to verify the break ... | 1996 | 8646893 |
