The role of vasopressin, cosecreted with corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH), in stress is
debated, because both normal as well as reduced adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) rise …

Gonadal steroids have been shown to modulate the involvement of vasopressinergic
neurotransmission in social recognition in rats. To assess whether the same phenomenon …

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) and its nonmammalian homolog arginine vasotocin influence
social behaviors ranging from affiliation to resident–intruder aggression. Although numerous …

The vasopressin system has been implicated in the regulation of social behavior and
cognition in humans, nonhuman primates and other social mammals. In chimpanzees …

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a neuropeptide involved in the regulation of fluid balance,
stress, circadian rhythms, and social behaviors. In the brain, AVP is tightly regulated by …

Vasopressin is a neuropeptide that has been strongly implicated in the development and
evolution of complex social relations and cognition in mammals. Recent studies in voles …

Pair-bonding has been suggested to be a critical factor in the evolutionary development of
the social brain. The brain neuropeptide arginine vasopressin (AVP) exerts an important …

Arginine vasopressin and corticotrophin‐releasing hormone synthesised and released from
the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus are the prime mediators of the hypothalamic …

This study confirms that icv administration of Arg-vasopressin (AVP, 20 ng) inhibits
copulatory behavior in female rats (lordosis response, LR) and demonstrates that this …

Parental care by fathers, although rare among mmmals, can be essential for the survival and
normal development of offspring in biparental species. A growing body of research on …
