Cross-talk among oxytocin and arginine-vasopressin receptors: Relevance for basic and clinical studies of the brain and periphery

TLDR
The increasing body of evidence that exogenously administered and endogenously released OT and AVP can activate each other's canonical receptors is reviewed and the possibility that receptor cross-talk following the synaptic and non-synaptic release of OT andAVP contributes to their distinct roles in the brain and periphery is examined.

TL;DR: The Communication program emphasizes theory, research, and application to examine the ways humans communicate, verbally and non-verbally, across a variety of levels and contexts, to understand ourselves, the authors' media, their relationships, their culture and how these things connect.

Is Oxytocin “Nature’s Medicine”?

TL;DR: Oxytocin is a pleiotropic, peptide hormone with broad implications for general health, adaptation, development, reproduction, and social behavior and its capacity to shift chemical forms and bind to other molecules make this molecule difficult to work with and to measure.

AMPK: Potential Therapeutic Target for Ischemic Stroke.

TL;DR: The basic structure, upstream regulators, and biological roles of AMPK are introduced and the relationship between AMPK and the neurovascular unit (NVU) is analyzed, followed by ethical issues, potential directions, and further prospects of AM PK.

FGF21 Signals to Glutamatergic Neurons in the Ventromedial Hypothalamus to Suppress Carbohydrate Intake

TL;DR: It is shown that FGF21 acts directly in the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) to specifically regulate sucrose intake, but not non-nutritive sweet-taste preference, body weight, or energy expenditure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complementary Neural Circuits for Divergent Effects of Oxytocin: Social Approach Versus Social Anxiety.

TL;DR: Evidence for neural circuits mediating the effects of OT in appetitive and aversive social contexts is reviewed and it is proposed that distinct but potentially overlapping circuits mediate OT-dependent social approach or social avoidance.

The Oxytocin Receptor System: Structure, Function, and Regulation

TL;DR: The regulation by gonadal and adrenal steroids is one of the most remarkable features of the OT system and is, unfortunately, the least understood.

Oxytocin and vasopressin in the human brain: social neuropeptides for translational medicine

TL;DR: OXT and AVP are emerging as targets for novel treatment approaches — particularly in synergistic combination with psychotherapy — for mental disorders characterized by social dysfunction, such as autism, social anxiety disorder, borderline personality disorder and schizophrenia.

Social amnesia in mice lacking the oxytocin gene.

TL;DR: The data indicate that OT is necessary for the normal development of social memory in mice and support the hypothesis that social memory has a neural basis distinct from other forms of memory.

Vasopressin and oxytocin release within the brain: a dynamic concept of multiple and variable modes of neuropeptide communication

TL;DR: This concept considers neuropeptides in the extracellular fluid of the brain rather than those in the cerebrospinal fluid or plasma as primary signals, triggering a variety of receptor-mediated effects, including those underlying behavioral and neuroendocrine regulation and psychopathology.
