Amygdaloid projections to the ventral striatum in mice: direct and indirect chemosensory inputs to the brain reward system
Frontiers (2011-08-22)Rodents constitute good models for studying the neural basis of sociosexual behavior. Recent findings in mice have revealed the molecular identity of the some pheromonal molecules triggering intersexual attraction. However, ... -
Focal lesions within the ventral striato-pallidum abolish attraction for male chemosignals in female mice
Elsevier (2014-02)In rodents, socio-sexual behaviour is largely mediated by chemosensory cues, some of which are rewarding stimuli. Female mice display an innate attraction towards male chemosignals, dependent on the vomeronasal system. ... -
Lack of MeCP2 leads to region-specific increase of doublecortin in the olfactory system
Springer (2019-05)The protein doublecortin is mainly expressed in migrating neuroblasts and immature neurons. The X-linked gene MECP2, associated to several neurodevelopmental disorders such as Rett syndrome, encodes the protein methyl-CpG-binding ... -
Sexual pheromones and the evolution of the reward system of the brain: The chemosensory function of the amygdala
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 ...
