Trajectories and Milestones of Cortical and Subcortical Development of the Marmoset Brain From Infancy to Adulthood.
With increasing attention on the developmental causes of neuropsychiatric disorders, appropriate animal models are crucial to identifying causes and assessing potential interventions. The common marmoset is an ideal model as it...

D2 receptors and cognitive flexibility in marmosets
Behavioral flexibility, which allows organisms to adapt their actions in response to environmental changes, is impaired in a number of neuropsychiatric conditions, including obsessive-compulsive disorder and addiction. Studies...

The ventromedial prefrontal cortex and emotion regulation
Neuroimaging studies implicate the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) in a wide range of emotional and cognitive functions, and changes in activity within vmPFC have been linked to the aetiology and successful treatment of...

A high infectious simian adenovirus type 23 vector based vaccine efficiently protects common marmosets against Zika virus infection.
Zika virus (ZIKV) has spread in many countries or territories causing severe neurologic complications with potential fatal outcomes. The small primate common marmosets are susceptible to ZIKV, mimicking key features of human...

Marmoset Viral Hepatic Inflammation Induced by Hepatitis C Virus Core Protein via IL-32.
Common marmosets infected with GB virus-B (GBV-B) chimeras containing hepatitis C virus (HCV) core and envelope proteins (CE1E2p7) developed more severe hepatitis than those infected with HCV envelope proteins (E1E2p7)...

Selective Role of the Putamen in Serial Reversal Learning in the Marmoset.
Fronto-striatal circuitry involving the orbitofrontal cortex has been identified as mediating successful reversal of stimulus-outcome contingencies. The region of the striatum that most contributes to reversal learning remains...

Quantifying anhedonia-like symptoms in marmosets using appetitive Pavlovian conditioning.
Blunted reward responsivity is associated with anhedonia in humans and is a core feature of depression. This protocol describes how to train the common marmoset, Callithrix jacchus, on an appetitive Pavlovian conditioning...

Trait Anxiety Mediated by Amygdala Serotonin Transporter in the Common Marmoset.
High trait anxiety is associated with altered activity across emotion regulation circuitry and a higher risk of developing anxiety disorders and depression. This circuitry is extensively modulated by serotonin. Here, to...

Region-specific microRNA alterations in marmosets carrying SLC6A4 polymorphisms are associated with anxiety-like behavior.
BACKGROUND: Psychiatric diseases such as depression and anxiety are multifactorial conditions, highly prevalent in western societies. Human studies have identified a number of high-risk genetic variants for these diseases. Among...
