Respiratory Animal Models in the Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)
Common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) are small non-human primates (NHPs) that are often used for respiratory research. Translational animal models of various pulmonary diseases in marmosets have been developed in favor of models in old world monkeys (OWM, e.g., rhesus or cynomolgus monkeys). The marmoset has the size of a rat (350–450 g), is easier to handle, and the husbandry, care, and manag...
متن کاملCommon marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) personality.
Increasing evidence suggests that personality structure differs between species, but the evolutionary reasons for this variation are not fully understood. We built on earlier research on New World monkeys to further elucidate the evolution of personality structure in primates. We therefore examined personality in 100 family-reared adult common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) from 3 colonies on a...
متن کاملExperimental schistosomiasis in the common marmoset Callithrix jacchus.
In order to evaluate Callithrix jacchus as an animal model for mansoni schistosomiasis, a group of 10 male animals were once percutaneously exposed to 250 cercariae of the Schistosoma mansoni SLM (São Lourenço da Mata) strain. Animals were periodically bled for measuring serum level of enzymes and proteins and for blood cell counting. When comparing pre-infection to post-infection values, a sig...
متن کاملCalcinosis circumscripta in a common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus jacchus).
A 2.5-y-old, male common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus jacchus) developed a 2-cm, interscapular, subcutaneous mass with variably firm and cystic areas. Radiographs demonstrated a radiodense mass in close proximity to a previously implanted microchip. Fine-needle aspiration yielded a chalky liquid that, on cytologic examination, contained amorphous debris. Aerobic and anaerobic cultures were nega...
متن کاملUltrasonic vocalization in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)
The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) is commonly used in biomedical research. For monitoring of their welfare in captivity, an objective measuring tool would be important. The aim of this study was to see if ultrasonic vocalizations (USV) might be a useful objective parameter in the assessment of pain and distress in these small primates. During different neutral, positive and negative tria...
