The Owl Monkey (Aotus spp.) as an Animal Research Model. Part 2: Physiology, Immunology, Reproduction, and Environmental Requirements
Owl monkeys (Aotus spp.) are the only nocturnal simian primates, and as such, they are very different from other nonhuman primate species. Despite owl monkeys being used as an animal model to study malaria for over 50 years, there is not much information about their requirements in captivity compared to other primate species commonly used in biomedical research. Adaptation to a nocturnal life implies changes in the biology of the species, changes that are not seen in diurnal nonhuman primates. Here we briefly review the physiology, immunology, reproduction, and environmental requirements of the owl monkey in hopes it will provide guidance to animal care personnel and investigators when designing housing and managing this invaluable species in captivity.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Medical Primatology publishes research on non-human primates as models to study, prevent, and/or treat human diseases; subjects include veterinary medicine; morphology, physiology, reproductive biology, central nervous system, and cardiovascular diseases; husbandry, handling, experimental methodology, and management of non-human primate colonies and laboratories; non-human primate wildlife management; and behaviour and sociology as related to medical conditions and captive non-human primate needs.
Published material includes: Original Manuscripts - research results; Case Reports - scientific documentation of a single clinical study; Short Papers - case histories, methodologies, and techniques of particular interest; Letters to the Editor - opinions, controversies and sporadic scientific observations; Perspectives – opinion piece about existing research on a particular topic; Minireviews – a concise review of existing literature; Book Reviews by invitation; Special Issues containing selected papers from specialized meetings; and Editorials and memoriams authored by the Editor-in-Chief.
