Oxytocinergic Feedback Circuitries: An Anatomical Basis for Neuromodulation of Social Behaviors
Oxytocin (OT) is a neuropeptide produced by hypothalamic neurons and is known to modulate social behavior among other functions. Several experiments have shown that OT modulates neuronal activity in many brain areas, including sensory cortices. OT neurons thus project axons to various cortical and s...
