functions like mother–infant interaction and lactation and is a potent modulator of social behaviours including attachment and sexual behaviour.1 Studies in animals and pilot experiments in humans have indicated that oxytocin moreover might have a role in the regulation of eating behaviour and ...
Animal studies and pilot experiments in men indicate that the hypothalamic neuropeptide oxytocin limits food intake, and raise the question of its potential to improve metabolic control in obesity. Subjects/Methods: We compared the effect of central nervous oxytocin administration (24 IU) via the ...
RESULTS: Here, we have confirmed that mice lacking the alpha and Delta CREB proteins (CREBalphaDelta-) have abnormal long-term, but not short-term, memory, as tested in an ethologically meaningful task. Importantly, additional spaced training can overcome the profound memory deficits of CREB...
