Testosterone and cortisol are negatively associated with ritualized bonding behavior in male macaques

A. V. Rincon, M. Heistermann, O. Schuelke, J. Ostner

The paper examines the relationship between testosterone and cortisol levels and ritualized bonding behavior in male Barbary macaques, finding negative correlations with triadic interactions within individuals.

Measuring urinary cortisol and testosterone levels in male Barbary macaques: A comparison of EIA and LC-MS

A. Rincon, J. Ostner, M. Heistermann, T. Deschner

This paper compares EIA and LC-MS for measuring cortisol and testosterone in male Barbary macaques' urine, finding EIA works for cortisol but not testosterone in immature males due to cross-reactivity.

B. Dantzer, C. Dubuc, I. Braga Goncalves, D. L. Cram, N. C. Bennett, A. Ganswindt, M. Heistermann, C. Duncan, D. Gaynor, T. H. Clutton-Brock

This study shows that maternal cortisol during pregnancy in meerkats reduces offspring growth and increases cooperative behavior in daughters but not sons.
