More than half of the examined animals (five of nine) were directly related to one breeding male, supporting a strong genetic predisposition. Histologically, four different types of endometriotic lesions, depending on the degree of ectopic endometrial gland and stromal differentiation (well differentiated, purely stromal, mixed differentiation, poorly differentiated), could be constantly identified within all animals. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of cytokeratin (CK), vimentin, smooth muscle actin (SMA), desmin, estrogen (ER), and progesterone (PR) receptors as well as of the nuclear proteins Ki67 and p53 revealed varying staining patterns in the four different types of endometriosis differentiation and compared to normal endometrium. Purely stromal, mixed, or poorly differentiated lesions, especially, showed additional cytokeratin-positive stromal cells, whereas epithelial cells of endometriosis with mixed or poor differentiation increasingly expressed mesenchymal markers (vimentin, SMA). Hormonal receptor and Ki67 expression in well-differentiated endometriotic lesions mostly reflected that of normal endometrial tissue according to the cyclic phase of the animal, while the expression gradually diminished with decreasing grade of differentiation. However, increased nuclear accumulations of p53 antigen could only be continuously detected in epithelial cells of mixed or poorly differentiated endometriosis. Altogether, these findings support the pathogenetic theory of coelomic metaplasia, since the expression profiles of somatic markers in less differentiated forms closely resembled that of mesothelial cells. Thus, the four different histological types of endometriosis might display subsequent grades of differentiation in the course of time, with poorly differentiated types representing newly formed, immature lesions and well-differentiated types being older, fully differentiated forms, rather than being the outcome of dedifferentiation processes.</p>","PeriodicalId":37245,"journal":{"name":"Primate Biology","volume":"4 1","pages":"77-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7041517/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37688288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The activities that followed the publication of this book created a success story in primate conservation: although still threatened, the golden lion tamarin is now in a much better situation than it was in the early 1970s (Kleiman and Rylands, 2002). Many other books dealing with primate conservation have followed since then, either focussing on specific taxa (e.g. Kleiman, 1977), specific geographic regions (e.g. Nadler et al., 2010), and specific threats or problems (e.g. Marsh and Chapman, 2013) or covering different taxa and conservation issues (e.g. Prince Rainier and Bourne, 1977; Marsh and Mittermeier 1986). The first comprehensive synthesis of the many aspects and problems in primate conservation was undertaken by Cowlishaw and Dunbar (2000). Since then, conceptual and methodological advances have been made, so a book presenting these advances and at the same time reviewing the state of the art of “classical” conservation issues was overdue. Thus, the book by Wich and Marshall is timely. It is an edited book in which specialists for different topics and taxa review recent advances. The book comprises in total 18 chapters, including a general introduction to primate conservation and an outlook (chapters 1 and 18 by the editors) that enframe the other, more specific, chapters. Several of the other chapters deal with “classical” topics like habitat destruction (Chapter 7 by Irwin), hunting (Chapter 9 by Fa and Tagg), and trade (Chapter 8 by Nijman and Healy), while others present more recent or novel aspects like the impact of infectious diseases (Chapter 10 by Nunn and Gillespie) and of climate change (Chapter 11 by Korstjens and Hillyer). Two chapters are strongly method oriented: that on conservation genetics, including a genomic perspective (Chapter 5 by Lynn and colleagues), and that concerning concepts and methods for estimating primate abundance and distribution (Chapter 6 by Campbell and colleagues). A chapter that I especially liked is “Why conserve primates?” by the editors. It provides a thorough and balanced discussion which confronts the “primatocentric” perspective often taken by primatologists with the reality and the problems such a perspective may cause. What I also liked is the combination of reviews with case studies, which provides a lively reading. Not explicitly mentioning the remaining chapters does not mean they were less important or good – all chapters and the book as a whole are important. The book fills a gap and will do a great job in training the next generation of primatologists and conservationists in understanding the proximate causes and mechanisms of the primate extinction crisis. It will also be very useful to professionals for updating their knowledge in “classical” fields of primate conservation biology and learning about new approaches like the REDD+ ","PeriodicalId":37245,"journal":{"name":"Primate Biology","volume":"32 1","pages":"69 - 70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82116829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
