Cholesterol metabolism in rhesus monkey, squirrel monkey, and baboon.
The metabolism of cholesterol was studied in baboons, rhesus monkeys, and squirrel monkeys while they were being fed either a low fat, low cholesterol (basal) diet or the basal diet supplemented with saturated fat and cholesterol (atherogenic diet). When the diet was changed from basal to atherogenic, the mean total serum cholesterol concentration increased from 70 to 180 mg/dl in the baboon, f...
متن کاملMyocardial Infarction in a Rhesus Monkey
Myocardial necrosis can be result from a number of causes including nutritional deficiencies, chemical and plant toxins, ischemia and metabolic disorder. The outcome of myocardial necrosis varies depending on the extent of the damage (Donald 2001, Jubb 1993, Radostits 1994, Vanvaleet 1986). Myocardial infarction without demonstrable of atherosclerosis were reported in a rhesus macaque (Gonder 1...
متن کاملPlacental Transport of Zidovudine in the Rhesus Monkey
OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to characterize the pharmacokinetics of zidovudine (ZDV) and ZDV-glucuronide (ZDVG) in the material and :fetal circulations of the rhesus monkey. METHODS Cannulas were placed in the maternal external jugular and the fetal internal jugular and carotid artery in 8 pregnant monkeys at .120-130 days gestation. ZDV (3.5 mg/kg) was administered to 5 monkeys and Z...
متن کاملCalcium metabolism of the normal rhesus monkey.
In research related to human nutrition, it has become a tradition first to conduct extensive studies on one or more species of experimental animal, and then to attempt to confirm the findings from these studies on relatively small groups of human beings. It is important that the animal species selected for study should closely resemble the human being with respect to the absorption, metabolism,...
متن کاملRhesus monkey placental transgene expression after lentiviral gene transfer into preimplantation embryos.
Transgenic mice have provided invaluable information about gene function and regulation. However, because of marked differences between rodents and primates, some areas of human biology such as early embryonic development, aging, and maternal-fetal interactions would be best studied in a nonhuman primate model. Here, we report that gene transfer into rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) preimplantati...
