Lipid microdomains and membrane trafficking in mammalian cells

This overview summarizes the data for how epithelial cells sort and deliver proteins and lipids to the apical and basolateral cell surface domains. The basolateral pathway uses a Rab-SNARE mechanism for docking and fusion, while the apical route employs a different machinery. This latter mechanism is based on lipid microdomains, composed of clusters of sphingolipids and cholesterol, which function as rafts for apical delivery. The sphingolipid-cholesterol raft mechanism seems to be employed generally by mammalian cells to transport raft-associated proteins to their post-Golgi destinations.

Age of menarche in pigtail monkeys (Macaca nemestrina): A cross-sectional survey of perineal tumescence

A four-month survey of perineal tumescence in 131 young female pigtail monkeys ($\text{Macaca nemestrina}$) revealed that most females had begun to swell by the time they were 3 years old. Those that had not begun to swell by that time were generally of lower weight than their peers. Those that tumesced before they were 3 years old tended to be heavier than their peers, but were not necessarily heavier than older, nonswelling females.
