The Vertebrate mesolimbic reward system and social behavior network: A comparative synthesis

TL;DR: A comprehensive comparative analysis of the two neural circuits of social behavior network and mesolimbic reward system concludes that they were already present in early vertebrates and proposes that these circuits form a larger social decision‐making (SDM) network that regulates adaptive behavior.

Male Sexual Behavior

TL;DR: Major areas controlling sexual motivation and performance in males include the mesolimbic dopamine (DA) system, the medial preoptic area (MPOA), the amygdala, and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BST).

Gonadal steroid hormone modulation of nociception, morphine antinociception and reproductive indices in male and female rats.

TL;DR: In adult rats, gonadal steroid manipulations modulate basal nociception in females but not males, and morphine's antinociceptive potency in both males and females is demonstrated.

Social neuroendocrinology of human aggression: examining the role of competition-induced testosterone dynamics.

TL;DR: An overview of the literature on T and human competition, with a primary focus on the role of competition-induced T dynamics in the modulation of human aggression, is provided in this article, where potential neural mechanisms underlying the effect of T dynamics on human aggression are discussed.

Comparative distribution of estrogen receptor-alpha and -beta mRNA in the rat central nervous system.

TL;DR: Comparing the distribution of the classical and novel forms of ER mRNA‐expressing neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) of the rat with in situ hybridization histochemistry provides evidence that the region‐specific expression of ER‐α, ER‐β, or both may be important in determining the physiological responses of neuronal populations to estrogen action.

Distribution of androgen and estrogen receptor mRNA‐containing cells in the rat brain: An in situ hybridization study

TL;DR: AR and ER may modulate nonolfactory sensory information as well since labeled cells were found in regions involved in the central relay of somatosensory information, including the mesencephalic nucleus of the trigeminal nerve, the ventral thalamic nuclear group, and the dorsal horn of the spinal cord.
