Oxytocin, Feeding, and Satiety [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2013 Oxytocin neurons have a physiological role in food intake and energy balance. Central administration of oxytocin is powerfully anorexigenic, reducing food intake and meal duration. The central mechanisms underlying this effect of oxytocin have become better understood in the past few years.

The Neurobiology of Love and Pair Bonding from Human and Animal Perspectives
Biology, 2023 Love is a powerful emotional experience that is rooted in ancient neurobiological processes shared with other species that pair bond. Considerable insights have been gained into the neural mechanisms driving the evolutionary antecedents of love by ...

The effects of coloring therapy on patients with generalized anxiety disorder
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 502-512, December 2022., 2022 After the intervention, there were statistical differences intra‐and‐inter group comparisons of anxiety, depression, and positive and negative mood scales in the experimental and control groups (p < .05). The minus in anxiety/positive emotions pre‐and‐post intervention in the experimental group was statistically significant compared to the minus in ...

Analysis &Sensing, Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Lanthanide complexes are ideal donors for FRET (Förster resonance energy transfer) assays with a variety of applications from easy‐to‐use quantitation of proteins to sophisticated experiments giving real‐time information on the movement of proteins. This Review article introduces the principles of using such assays before surveying the full scope of ...

The importance of oxytocin neurons in the supraoptic nucleus for breastfeeding in mice.
PLoS ONE, 2023 The hormone oxytocin, secreted from oxytocin neurons in the paraventricular (PVH) and supraoptic (SO) hypothalamic nuclei, promotes parturition, milk ejection, and maternal caregiving behaviors. Previous experiments with whole-body oxytocin knockout mice

ChemBioChem, Volume 23, Issue 23, December 5, 2022., 2022 Housing sulfur: Certain fungi produce diketopiperazine compounds with a transannular sulfur bridge. These so‐called epipolythiodioxopiperzines are toxic by non‐specifically interacting with intracellular proteins and contribute to fungal pathogenicity. Producer strains serve as bio‐pesticides but also question safety of food fermentation.

Oxytocin-Trust Link in Oxytocin-Sensitive Participants and Those Without Autistic Traits
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 There have been numerous studies in which the biological role of oxytocin in trusting behavior has been investigated. However, a link between oxytocin and trust in humans was discovered only in one early study.
