    Description

    This dataset includes video recordings of the behavior of virgin mice with dams and pups and single cell recordings from the left paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus of virgin mice. The associated study examined neural activation related to the acquisition of pup retrieval behavior as virgin mice were enlisted in maternal care by experienced mothers. In the study, C57B1/6 virgin female mice were...

    Description

    Oxytocin is a neuropeptide released in the central nervous system, which is involved in a wide range of behaviors including reproduction, parental care, and pair bonding. In addition, peripheral oxytocin is important for milk ejection during nursing and uterine contractions during labor. Oxytocin is produced mainly in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus. This...
