Extending the socio-sexual brain: arginine-vasopressin immunoreactive circuits in the telencephalon of mice
Otero García, Marcos; Martín Sánchez, Ana; Fortes Marco, Lluís; Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Lanuza, Enrique; Martinez-Garcia, Fernando Springer Berlin Heidelberg (2014-05)Quantitative analysis of the immunoreactivity for arginine-vasopressin (AVP-ir) in the telencephalon of male (intact and castrated) and female CD1 mice allows us to precisely locate two sexually dimorphic (more abundant ... -
Intraspecific Communication Through Chemical Signals in Female Mice: Reinforcing Properties of Involatile Male Sexual Pheromones
Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Lanuza, Enrique; Martinez-Garcia, Fernando Oxford University Press (2007)In rodents, social and reproductive behaviors critically depend on chemical signals, including sexual pheromones that have been suggested (but not demonstrated) to be rewarding. In this work, we analyze this issue by ... -
Refining the dual olfactory hypothesis: Pheromone reward and odour experience
Martinez-Garcia, Fernando; Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Martínez-Hernández, José; Novejarque, Amparo; Lanuza, Enrique Elsevier (2009-06)In rodents, sexual advertisement and gender recognition are mostly (if not exclusively) mediated by chemosignals. Specifically, there is ample evidence indicating that female mice are ‘innately’ attracted by male sexual ... -
Role of nitric oxide in pheromone-mediated intraspecific communication in mice
Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Martinez-Garcia, Fernando; Lanuza, Enrique Elsevier (2009-12)Nitric oxide is known to take part in the control of sexual and agonistic behaviours. This is usually attributed to its role in neural transmission in the hypothalamus and other structures of the limbic system. However, ... -
Role of the vomeronasal system in intersexual attraction in female mice
Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Lanuza, Enrique; Martinez-Garcia, Fernando Elsevier (2008-05)Although it is generally accepted that rodents' sociosexual behavior relies mainly on chemosignals, the specific roles played by the vomeronasal and olfactory systems in detecting these signals are presently unclear. This ... -
Sexual pheromones and the evolution of the reward system of the brain: The chemosensory function of the amygdala
Lanuza, Enrique; Novejarque, Amparo; Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Martínez-Hernández, José; Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Martinez-Garcia, Fernando Elsevier (2008-03)The amygdala of all tetrapod vertebrates receives direct projections from the main and accessory olfactory bulbs, and the strong similarities in the organization of these projections suggest that they have undergone a very ...
