The middle-aged ovariectomized marmoset ( Callithrix jacchus ) as a model of menopausal symptoms: Preliminary evidence

Highlights • Estradiol (E2) replacement decreases nighttime core body temperature in the OVX female marmoset. • E2 replacement decreases the number of nighttime arousals. • E2 replacement increases delta power, a marker of sleep quality. • The OVX marmoset is a promising model for studying menopausa...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Estradiol (E2) replacement decreases nighttime core body temperature in the OVX female marmoset. • E2 replacement decreases the number of nighttime arousals. • E2 replacement increases delta power, a marker of sleep quality. • The OVX marmoset is a promising model for studying menopausal symptoms such as sleep disturbances and thermodysregulation.
