Vasopressin and pair-bond formation: genes to brain to behavior.

Physiology (Bethesda, Md.) - 1 Apr 2006

Nair Hemanth P, Young Larry J

Abstract excerpt

Microtine rodents provide an excellent model for the study of the neurobiology of social bonds. In this review, we discuss how the presence of a microsatellite sequence in the prairie vole vasopressin receptor gene may determine vasopressin receptor binding patterns in the brain and how these pat...
