Oxytocin and vasopressin neural networks: Implications for social behavioral diversity and translational neuroscience
TLDR
Both conserved and variable features of central oxytocin and vasopressin systems are described in the context of social behavioral diversity, with a particular focus on neural networks that modulate social learning, behavior, and salience of sociosensory stimuli during species‐typical social contexts.About:

The vasopressin-memory hypothesis: a citation network analysis of a debate.
TL;DR: This debate using citation network analysis is studied to identify the influential papers in this debate and the citation links between them and the issues raised have contemporary relevance to the current controversy about the interpretation of studies using intranasal oxytocin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex-Specific Vasopressin Signaling Buffers Stress-Dependent Synaptic Changes in Female Mice.
TL;DR: A critical role is described for the neuropeptide vasopressin (VP) in social buffering of synaptic metaplasticity in stress-responsive corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons in female mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of central oxytocin and dopamine systems in nociception and their possible interactions: suggested hypotheses.
TL;DR: It is proposed that an oxytocin-dopamine interaction could be present in nociception, and the possible hypotheses of such an interaction between these systems are explained.

Facilitation of affiliation and pair-bond formation by vasopressin receptor gene transfer into the ventral forebrain of a monogamous vole
Lauren J. Pitkow,Catherine A. Sharer,Xianglin Ren,Thomas R. Insel,Ernest F. Terwilliger,Larry J. Young +5 more
TL;DR: In the male prairie vole, the V1a receptor activation in the ventral pallidum was found to promote pair-bond formation via a mechanism similar to conditioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of air pollution exposure on social behavior: a synthesis and call for research.
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of air pollution exposure on the brain may be even broader, with the potential to affect social decision-making in general, and the authors suggest a comparative approach that utilizes diverse model systems to probe the effects on a wider range of social behaviors, brain regions, and neurochemical pathways.

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.

Meta-analytic evidence for common and distinct neural networks associated with directly experienced pain and empathy for pain
TL;DR: It is concluded that social neuroscience paradigms provide reliable and accurate insights into complex social phenomena such as empathy and that meta-analyses of previous studies are a valuable tool in this endeavor.

The social behaviour of anuran amphibians
TL;DR: Temporal patterns of anuran reproduction fall into two broad categories: prolonged breeding and explosive breeding, and many aspects of vocal behaviour and chorus organization can be viewed as consequences of intrasexual competition.

TL;DR: It is shown that human amygdala function is strongly modulated by oxytocin, and this results indicate a neural mechanism for the effects of Oxytocin in social cognition in the human brain and provide a methodology and rationale for exploring therapeutic strategies in disorders in which abnormal amygdala function has been implicated, such as social phobia or autism.

Oxytocin, vasopressin, and the neurogenetics of sociality.
Zoe R. Donaldson,Larry J. Young +1 more
TL;DR: There is growing evidence that the neuropeptides oxytocin and vasopressin modulate complex social behavior and social cognition and suggest that variation in the genes encoding their receptors may contribute to variation in human social behavior by altering brain function.
