Male Monkeys (Macacafascicularis

چکیده
The localization of galanin (GAL) was studied in the anterior pituitary of adult male macaque monkeys immunohistochemically. GAL-immunoreactive fiber bundles were noted in the posterior lobe of the pituitary. Cells immunoreactive for GAL were observed in the anterior lobe, and colocalization studies revealed that GAL-like immunoreactivity was present in gonadotrophs and thyrotrophs. The differences among the monkey, human and rat in GAL-immunoreactive localization may indicate that the regulation of GAL in the three species differs.

Investigation of monkey neurovirulence of dengue-3 viruses (DEN-3, 16562) was undertaken to provide an evaluation of the relative safety of virus strain attenuated for potential use of live virus vaccine. Ten flavivirus-negative, cynomolgus monkeys (Macacafascicularis) were used in the test. The animals were inoculated intrathalamically, intraspinally and intramuscularly with DEN-3 PGMK 33 atte...

Objective(s): In the present study the effect of stress on monkeys that had learned to retrieve food from a five-chamber receptacle, as well as the relationship between their behavior and the serum cortisol and epinephrine levels and relative size of the amygdala was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Six male rhesus monkeys were individually given access to the food reward orderly. They could e...
متن کاملThe Effect of Electrical Fields from High-Voltage Transmission Line on Cognitive Changes in Male Rhesus Macaque Monkeys: A Biological and Anatomical Study Using MRI Case Report Study
Living near high-voltage power lines and exposure to high-frequency electromagnetic fields (EMFs) is a potential serious hazard to animal and human health. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of high-frequency EMFs from simulated high-voltage electric towers on cognitive, anatomical, and biological changes in male Macaque. In this study, two Rhesus Macaque were recruited, ...
