Effects of administering a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor into the medial preoptic area on retrieval behavior and maternal aggression in postpartum rats

Previous research has shown that suppressing the production of nitric oxide (NO) by administering an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), L-NAME, into the third ventricle disrupts pup retrieval and maternal aggression in postpartum rats. The current experiments were carried out to investigate t...
