Partner separation rescues pair bond-induced decreases in hypothalamic oxytocin neural densities. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2023 Studies in prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) have shown that although formation of the pair bond is accompanied by a suite of behavioral changes, a bond between two voles can dissolve and individuals can form new pair bonds with other conspecifics ...

Different roles of D1/D2 medium spiny neurons in the nucleus accumbens in pair bond formation of male mandarin voles. [PDF]
ElifeThe mesolimbic dopamine (DA) system has been implicated in pair bond formation. However, the involvements of DA release, real-time activities, and electrophysiological activities of D1/D2 medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) shell ...

What makes a pair bond in a Neotropical primate: female and male contributions. [PDF]
R Soc Open Sci, 2020 Pair living and pair bonding are rare in mammals, and the mechanisms of their maintenance remain a puzzle. Titi monkeys, a ‘textbook example’ for ‘monogamous’ primates, have strong pair bonds and extensive male care.

Sex differences in structural and receptor mRNA expression in the ventral anterior cingulate cortex and a potential role of perineuronal nets in monogamous pair bond establishment (Peromyscus californicus). [PDF]
Biol Sex DifferThe monogamous California mouse (Peromyscus californicus) exhibits distinct behavioral changes during pair bond formation. Using a detailed temporal behavioral analysis over seven days, we found a rapid decrease in aggression within 24 h of pair ...

Crystal structure of bis(mesityl)(pyrrol-1-yl)borane
Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2023 In the crystal structure of the title compound, C22H26BN, the B atom acts to reduce the delocalization of the nitrogen lone-pair electron density into the pyrrole ring, so that the two N—C bonds increase in length to 1.4005 (14) and 1.3981 (14) Å.
