hyperglycemia decreased medial amygdala projections to medial preoptic area in experimental model of diabetes mellitus.
in wistar rats, reproductive behavior is controlled in a neural circuit of ventral forebrain including the medial amygdala (me), bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (bnst) and medial preoptic area (mpoa) via perception of social odors. diabetes mellitus (dm) is a widespread metabolic disease that affects many organs in a variety of levels. dm can cause central neuropathies such as neuronal apop...

متن کاملMedial preoptic area dopaminergic responses to female pheromones develop during puberty in the male Syrian hamster.
Chemosensory cues from receptive females do not elicit similar reactions before and after puberty in male hamsters. While pheromones facilitate a complex display of reproductive behavior in adults, prepubertal males do not engage in these same behaviors. Dopamine (DA) released from the medial preoptic area (MPOA) in response to a receptive female or her odors is an important component of the ne...
متن کاملProlactin action in the medial preoptic area is necessary for postpartum maternal nursing behavior.
Pregnancy hormones, such as prolactin, sensitize neural circuits controlling parental interactions to induce timely activation of maternal behaviors immediately after parturition. While the medial preoptic area (MPOA) is known to be critical for maternal behavior, the specific role of prolactin in this brain region has remained elusive. Here, we evaluated the role of prolactin action in the MPO...
متن کاملThe effects of parity and maternal behavior on gene expression in the medial preoptic area and the medial amygdala in postpartum and virgin female rats: A microarray study.
To determine the pattern of gene expression in brains associated with mothering during the postpartum period, in the present study we assessed gene expression through microarrays in four groups of female rats: two groups of new mothers that were experiencing the hormonal and neurochemical changes associated with pregnancy and parturition, and two groups of virgin females that were not. Within e...
