Lipid metabolism is associated with temperament, corticosteroid, and hematological measures in infant rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta).

ABSTRACT: Individuals can differ in how their behavioral and physiological systems are organized. The fact that these individual differences persist across life suggests they are supported by physical structures that may co-vary. Here, we explored three datasets associated with health and behavioral outcomes, which were obtained from infant rhesus monkeys during standardized assessment of biobehavioral organization. Variation in biobehavioral measures was related to variation in molecular pathways, as assessed by metabolomics. Plasma from infant male rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta) ( n=52) was subjected to metabolite profiling. Principal component analyses identified multiple factors that explained 60%-80% of the variance in the metabolite measures. Correlational and regression analys
