Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic origins of social networks in rhesus macaques
Lauren J. N. Brent,Sarah R. Heilbronner,Julie E. Horvath,Julie E. Horvath,Julie E. Horvath,Janis Gonzalez-Martinez,Angelina V. Ruiz-Lambides,Athy Robinson,J. H. Pate Skene,Michael L. Platt +9 more
TL;DR: Evidence that social network tendencies are heritable in a gregarious primate, rhesus macaques, is provided, suggesting that, like humans, the skills and temperaments that shape the formation of multi-agent relationships have a genetic basis in nonhuman primates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokine Gene Expression Profiles during Initiation, Progression and Resolution of Periodontitis
Jeffrey L. Ebersole,Sreenatha Kirakodu,M. J. Novak,Arnold J. Stromberg,Shu Shen,Luis Orraca,Janis Gonzalez-Martinez,Armando Burgos,Octavio A. Gonzalez +8 more
TL;DR: Initiation, progression and resolution of periodontitis involve over- and underexpression of cytokine genes related to various T-helper subsets, and variations in individual T- Helper response subset/genes during disease progression correlated with protective/destructive outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Effects of Leptin on Mouse Reproductive Function: Regulation of Follicular, Oocyte, and Embryo Development
TL;DR: Results indicate leptin directly enhances insulin and gonadotropin-stimulated ovarian steroidogenesis, compromises denuded oocyte maturation, yet has no direct effect on preimplantation embryo development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Apoptotic Genes are Differentially Expressed in Aged Gingival Tissue
Octavio A. Gonzalez,Arnold J. Stromberg,P.M. Huggins,Janis Gonzalez-Martinez,M. J. Novak,J. L. Ebersole +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that apoptotic events normally occurring in gingival tissues could be reduced in aging, and unique aspects of apoptotic pathways are potentially involved in the pathophysiology of perio-dontal disease in adult vs. aged gedival tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Personality Traits in Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta) Are Heritable but Do Not Predict Reproductive Output
Lauren J. N. Brent,Lauren J. N. Brent,Stuart Semple,Ann MacLarnon,Angelina V. Ruiz-Lambides,Janis Gonzalez-Martinez,Michael L. Platt +6 more
TL;DR: No evidence of an association with reproductive output, measured either by infant survival or by interbirth interval, for any of the personality components suggests either that personality does not have fitness-related consequences in this population or that selection has acted to reduce fitness-associated variation in personality.
