Abstract:

<p>Among rhesus macaques, bi-directional aggression may occur between animals with shifting or ambiguous ranks, or between those whose relative ranks are well established. Factors that influence the latter case (here termed "insubordinate aggression") are not well understood. These factors are of interest because insubordinate aggression may be associated with stability in dominance relationships, and stability in dominance relationships is critically related to group stability. We hypothesized that in well-established female dominance relationships, the likelihood of insubordination during co

Abstract:

Numerous studies show that a low level of response to the intoxicating effects of alcohol is considered a risk factor for future alcoholism. However, assessing this sensitivity usually requires administering a controlled dose of alcohol, which has a number of inherent problems. Early observations in our lab suggest that the response to anesthetics that show cross tolerance with alcohol, like ketamine, are blunted in nonhuman primates at risk for high alcohol intake, and may be a viable measure of future alcohol consumption. This study was designed to test potential predictors of future alcohol

Abstract:

Group living primates utilise a number of characteristic post-conflict behaviours as a means of regulating the impact of escalated intragroup disputes. Although immature group members are typically implicated in disproportionate levels of aggression in many cercopithecine taxa, the conflict management abilities of young animals remain relatively unstudied as most previous investigations have focused solely upon adults or pooled data across age classes. This study therefore utilised a cross-sectional design to examine the immediate consequences of aggressive confrontations and the patterning of

Abstract:

This thesis presents the development and application of methods to assess cognitive markers of emotion and psychological wellbeing in a species of nonhuman primate, the rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta). In humans, vulnerability to emotional disorders such as anxiety and depression is characterized by particular cognitive profiles, known as cognitive biases. For example, anxious people automatically attend to threat-relevant information, interpret ambiguous information negatively, and have negative expectations of future events.

This research address the problem of inferring, through Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tracking data, the graph structures underlying social interactions in a group of rhesus macaques (a species of monkey). These social interactions are considered as independent affiliative and dominative components and are characterized by a variety of visual and auditory displays and gestures. Social structure in a group is an important indicator of its members’ relative level of access to resources and has interesting implications for an individual’s health.

Auditory recognition memory in non-human primates is not well understood. Monkeys have difficulty acquiring auditory memory tasks, and limited capability maintaining auditory information over memory delays, relative to studies of visual memory. Neural substrates of auditory discrimination and recognition memory depend on superior temporal gyrus (STG), instead of rhinal cortex necessary for visual memory (Fritz et al., 2005). The current project assessed behavioral and neural correlates of auditory processing and memory function in monkeys, particularly focusing on the dorsal temporal pole (dTP

The face holds a central role in both human and nonhuman primate social interactions, through the communication of feelings and intentions via facial expressions and by acting as a means of recognising individuals.

Many researchers have proposed that human aesthetic judgments of facial attractiveness have a biological basis, and these preferences have evolved via sexual selection processes during human evolution.

Abstract:

Animal models are an integral component of modern science. Non-human primates (NHPs) are effective models for many human diseases and conditions due to their close phylogenetic relationship. In particular, their specific cortical organisation and neural specialisations makes them invaluable for neuroscience research, both basic and applied. The advanced cognitive abilities of NHPs and their fine motor dexterity means that they can be trained to perform complex tasks in the laboratory whilst cortical activity is measured. Many of these tasks require hundreds or thousands of iterations in order

Rhesus macaques represent a valuable model in biomedical research and in development of vaccines and therapeutics.

To define FcγRs that mediate IgGs, we identified and characterized three FcγR classes, and generated recombinant cDNA constructs. cDNA IgH constructs were created by fusing – by sequence overlap extension PCRs – a gene segment

Abstract:

Typically, rhesus mothers begin rejecting their infants' attempts to nurse when the infants are approximately three months of age in order to begin the process of weaning. A small subgroup of mothers begin rejecting their infants earlier, at one or two months of age, typically before infants seek and maintain independence from their mother. The effects of this early maternal rejection on the development of infants and some potential factors that contribute to premature maternal rejection were explored in this study. Infants who were rejected early were hypothesized to subsequently spend less t

Delayed nonmatching-to-sample recognition memory scores declined with age and correlated with PACAP levels in the striatum, parietal and temporal lobes. Because amyloid plaques were the only AD pathology in the old rhesus macaque, we further studied human amyloid precursor protein (hAPP)

The corticospinal tract (CST), which carries commands from the cerebral cortex to the spinal cord, is vital to fine motor control. Spinal cord injury (SCI) often damages CST axons, causing loss of motor function, most notably in the hands and legs. Our preliminary work in rats suggests that CST circuitry is complex: neurons whose axons project to the lower cervical spinal cord, which directly controls hand function, also send axon collaterals to other locations in the nervous system and may engage parallel motor systems. To inform research into repair of SCI, we therefore aimed to map the enti

Abstract:

Many primate populations face the threat of extinction due to habitat loss, intensive agriculture, hunting for meat, the pet trade and/or use in traditional medicines. An alternative approach to in situ conservation includes gene banking and the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), such as oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Although many of these 'high-tech' solutions have not yet been proven viable for pragmatic wildlife conservation, basic research and development of these emerging tools can provide necessary information needed to optimize th

Abstract:

Beta defensins are multifunctional secreted short peptides rapidly evolving in mammals. They present antibacterial and antiviral action in many species and possess immune cell signal activity, constituting a link between innate and adaptive immunity. In humans the β-defensin region is known to be copy number variable (CNV) and contains seven genes repeated as a block, with a diploid copy number between 1 and 12 and an approximate repeat length of 240kb but the extent and nature of CNV in other mammals remains poorly known. The rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) is the most widespread non-human pr

Abstract:

La duplicació és el principal mecanisme de formació de nou material genètic i d'innovació funcional. Entendre com les duplicacions sorgeixen, evolucionen, co-evolucionen i engendren noves funcions és essencial. Aquesta tesi recull les meves contribucions a aquest objectiu. Investigo la recombinació responsable de la co-evolució dels duplicats: conversió gènica entre loci (IGC). Específicament, exploro com l'IGC i la recombinació per entrecreuament interactuen; com la dependència de l'IGC de la similitud entre duplicats influencia la seva co-evolució i com el col·lapse de duplicats en el

Abstract:

La premiere partie de ce travail decrit les niveaux d'attention chez le macaque rhesus pendant l'execution d'une tache visuo-motrice presentant divers degres de difficulte en laboratoire. L'analyse du comportement de l'animal correlee a celle de son electrocorticogramme (ecog) recueilli dans l'aire parietale posterieure (aire 5 de brodmann), par des electrodes implantees a demeure, a montre chez celui-ci des relations significatives des rythmes beta avec l'etat attentionnel de l'animal. L'attention diffuse vers l'environnement experimental a ete illustree par une dispersion des frequences, l'a
