Sex-specific and social experience-dependent oxytocin–endocannabinoid interactions in the nucleus accumbens: implications for social behaviour
Oxytocin modulates social behaviour across diverse vertebrate taxa, but the precise nature
of its effects varies across species, individuals and lifetimes. Contributing to this variation is …
