Oxytocin has garnered considerable interest for its role in social behavior, as well as for the
potential of intranasal administration to treat social difficulties. However, current theoretical …

Oxytocin (OT) is a great facilitator of social life but, although its effects on socially relevant
brain regions have been extensively studied, OT neuron activity during actual social …

Oxytocin (OT), a peptide hormone and neuromodulator, is involved in diverse physiological
and pathophysiological processes in the central nervous system and the periphery …

Many social behaviours are evolutionarily conserved and are essential for the healthy
development of an individual. The neuropeptide oxytocin (OXT) is crucial for the fine-tuned …

Oxytocin (OXT)-mediated behavioral responses to social and stressful cues have
extensively been studied in male rodents. Here, we investigated the capacity of brain OXT …

Oxytocin (OT) release by axonal terminals onto the central nucleus of the amygdala exerts
anxiolysis. To investigate which subpopulation of OT neurons contributes to this effect, we …

Classically, hypothalamic neuroendocrine cells that synthesise oxytocin and vasopressin
were categorised in two major cell types: the magnocellular and parvocellular neurones. It …

The neuropeptide oxytocin (OT) attracts the interest of neuroscientists, psychologists, and
psychiatrists due to its capacity to modulate emotional and social behavior. Although much …

Oxytocin (OT), a nonapeptide, has a variety of functions. Despite extensive studies on OT
