Journal ArticleDOI
RNAi knockdown of oxytocin receptor in the nucleus accumbens inhibits social attachment and parental care in monogamous female prairie voles
TL;DR: These are the first direct demonstrations that OXTR plays a critical role in alloparental behavior and adult social attachment, and suggest that natural variation in OX TR expression in this region alone can create variation in social behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroanatomical distribution of oxytocin receptor binding in the female rabbit forebrain: Variations across the reproductive cycle.
Angeles Jiménez,Larry J. Young,Rodrigo Triana-Del Rio,Jamie L. LaPrairie,Gabriela González-Mariscal +4 more
TL;DR: The results are consistent with a possible role of OT in modulating social and maternal behavior in rabbits since the brain regions sensitive to OT have been implicated in social interaction, learning and memory, olfactory processing and maternalbehavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributions of oxytocin and vasopressin 1a receptors in the Taiwan vole and their role in social monogamy.
A. R. Chappell,Sara M. Freeman,Sara M. Freeman,Yu-Hsun Lin,Jamie L. LaPrairie,Kiyoshi Inoue,Larry J. Young,Loren D. Hayes,Loren D. Hayes +8 more
TL;DR: The neuroanatomical distribution of OTR and V1aR binding sites in naturally occurring populations of Taiwan voles, which purportedly display social monogamy, is characterized to lay a foundation for future investigations into the role of these neuropeptides in Taiwan vole social behavior.
Journal Article
Distributions of oxytocin and vasopressin 1a receptors in the Taiwan vole and their role in social monogamy
A. R. Chappell,Sara M. Freeman,Sara M. Freeman,Yu-Hsun Lin,Jamie L. LaPrairie,Kiyoshi Inoue,Larry J. Young,Loren D. Hayes,Loren D. Hayes +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterized the neuroanatomical distribution of OTR and V1aR binding sites in naturally occurring populations of Taiwan voles (M. kikuchii), which purportedly display social monogamy.
