Hypothalamic arginine vasotocin mRNA abundance variation across sexes and with sex change in a coral reef fish.

Brain, behavior and evolution - 1 Feb 2000

Godwin J, Sawby R, Warner R R, Crews D, Grober M S

Abstract excerpt

Gonadal hormones are important mediators of sexual and aggressive behavior in vertebrates. Recent evidence suggests that the peptide hormones arginine vasotocin (AVT) and its mammalian homologue arginine vasopressin (AVP) often critically mediate these gonadal hormone effects on behavior and have direct influences on behavioral variation. Behavioral differences between sexes, across reproductive states, and even...
