Pancreatic degenerative lesions of identical nature could be induced in bonnet monkeys (Macaca radiata) fed protein-deficient tapioca or cassava starch-based and corn-starch-based diets for 3 or 5 months. Marked to severe lobular and acinar cell atrophy in animals fed low-protein diets resembled
The main purpose of this study was to determine whether exposures to ambient levels of ozone induced changes in the carbohydrate content in the anterior nasal cavity of bonnet monkey. Monkeys were exposed to 0.00. 0.15, or 0.30 ppm of ozone for 6 or 90 days, 8 hours/day. Monkeys treated for 90 days
Ten pairs of obese and nonobese monkeys, matched for age and sex, received one liquid test meal a day for 4 days. Testing was conducted during the middle of a 6-h period of food deprivation. At all other times the monkeys were freely fed on maintenance chow biscuits. The first test meal of grape and
Bonnet Monkeys (Macaca radiata) were maintained for up to 5 mo on protein-deficient diets that contained tapioca starch (cassava starch) as the source of carbohydrate. The animals developed mucopolysaccharidosis of blood vessels and cardiomyopathic changes in the heart. These changes were similar to
Effects of prolactin (PRL), bromocriptine (Br), testosterone propionate (TP), dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and the combinations of these androgens with PRL/Br on the specific activities of caudal and cranial prostatic cellular enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism in castrated mature bonnet
The influence of prolactin (Prl) and bromocriptine on the specific activities of neural and glial cellular enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism in cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum and pons-medulla was studied. Both Prl and bromocriptine stimulated the activity of hexokinase (HK) in
The major glycoprotein component of cervical mucus of bonnet monkey was treated with Pronase, and the enzyme-resistant glycoprotein purified by gel filtration on Sepharose 4B followed by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Alkaline-borohydride cleavage of the carbohydrate chains gave a mixture of neutral
Effects of prolactin(Prl), bromocriptine(Br), testosterone propionate (TP), dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and combinations of these androgens with Prl/Br on the maximum catalytic capacities of seminal vesicular enzymes involved in the glycolytic and pentose phosphate pathways in castrated mature monkeys
The influence of proteinases on monkey cervical glycoproteins was investigated to assess their effect on cervical mucus and, thereby, on sperm penetration. The major component of periovulatory cervical mucus, a high molecular weight glycoprotein, was treated with Pronase, trypsin, chymotrypsin,
Mucoid vasculopathy is an entity characterized by a generalized mucopolysaccharidosis of blood vessels. It has been observed in patients from our Institute. Bonnet monkeys (Macaca radiata) were given low-protein normal-carbohydrate and low-protein high-carbohydrate tapioca based diets for
The effect of 6 or 90 days exposure to 0.15 or 0.30 ppm of ozone on the morphology or carbohydrate cytochemistry of bonnet monkey tracheal epithelium was studied. Ozone treatment induced damages and necrotic phenomena of ciliated cells, as well as a significant increase in the population density of
An internal cDNA fragment (978 bp) corresponding to bonnet monkey (Macaca radiata) zona pellucida glycoprotein-C (bmZPC), excluding the N-terminal signal sequence and the C-terminal transmembrane-like domain, was cloned in pQE-30 vector and the protein expressed as inclusion bodies in Escherichia
A high-molecular-weight glycoprotein has been purified from the cervical mucus of the bonnet monkey (Macaca radiata). The glycoprotein was shown to be homogeneous by electrophoresis, sedimentation equilibrium, and N-terminal group determination, and to contain 19% protein, 19% D-galactose, 18%
The major macromolecular component of monkey cervical mucus has been purified from crude monkey cervical mucus at various times during a hormonally induced estrous cycle. The major component, a high-molecular weight glycoprotein, was secreted in large amounts in midcycle mucus. The glycoprotein
