Antistress Pattern Induced by Oxytocin.
Repeated oxytocin injections cause lowered blood pressure, decreased cortisol levels, increased withdrawal latency, increased release of vagally controlled gastrointestinal hormones, and increased weight gain. Together, these effects form an antistress pattern. Nonnoxious sensory stimuli release oxytocin and induce an effect spectrum similar to the one caused by oxytocin injections.
متن کاملOlfactory cues from an oxytocin-injected male rat can induce anti-nociception in its cagemates.
We recently demonstrated an olfactorily induced tail skin temperature drop in saline-injected rats exposed to an oxytocin-injected cagemate, an effect abolished by olfactory impairment. Treatment with oxytocin may induce both nociceptive and anti-nociceptive effects. The contrasting effects likely depend on the model and dosage used. Here we report an increased hindpaw withdrawal latency in res...
متن کاملSelf-soothing behaviors with particular reference to oxytocin release induced by non-noxious sensory stimulation
Oxytocin, a hypothalamic nonapeptide, is linked to increased levels of social interaction, well-being and anti-stress effects. The effects of oxytocin that is released by sensory stimulation during different kinds of interactive behaviors are often underestimated or even forgotten. In fact, many of the positive effects caused during interaction, such a wellbeing, stress reduction and even healt...
متن کاملPostnatal oxytocin alleviates adverse effects in adult rat offspring caused by maternal malnutrition.
Repeated oxytocin administration to adult rats causes a long-term decrease of plasma levels of corticosterone and blood pressure and stimulates growth and fat retention. Maternal undernutrition increases blood pressure and plasma corticosterone in adult offspring. We hypothesized that oxytocin treatment early in life would alleviate adverse effects of intrauterine food restriction. Male pups fr...
