16) Physiologic data
Lin et al. (1988) determined the structure of mandrill hemoglobin chains and compared them with other cercopithecids. They thus suggested placement of mandrills between macacs and baboons. Peinado et al. (1996) published hematologic values of mangabeys and mandrills and found them to be essentially similar to other cercopithecids. Zachos et al. (2004) deprived (or supplemented) gestations of estrogens and showed a decrease of fetal oocytes in the deprived animals. They proposed that the microvillous surface of oocyte development is regulated by estrogens.
17) Other resources
Cell strains of fibroblast cultures are available from CRES at San Diego Zoo by contacting Dr. Oliver Ryder at oryder@ucsd.edu .
18) Other remarks – What additional Information is needed?
Definitive stages of mandrill implantation and their early development are missing. Also, little specific endocrine data are published.
