Medial preoptic area in mice is capable of mediating sexually dimorphic behaviors regardless of gender

Nature Communications, 2018
The medial preoptic area (mPOA) in a mammalian brain is sexually dimorphic, and yet its exact function in mediating gender-specific behavior remains unclear.

Neurogliaform cortical interneurons derive from cells in the preoptic area

eLife, 2018
Delineating the basic cellular components of cortical inhibitory circuits remains a fundamental issue in order to understand their specific contributions to microcircuit function.

GABAergic Neurons in the Preoptic Area Send Direct Inhibitory Projections to Orexin Neurons

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
Populations of neurons in the hypothalamic preoptic area (POA) fire rapidly during sleep, exhibiting sleep/waking state-dependent firing patterns that are the reciprocal of those observed in the arousal system. The majority of these preoptic sleep-active

Homeostatic Regulation of Sleep: A Role for Preoptic Area Neurons [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 2006
The median preoptic nucleus (MnPN) and the ventrolateral preoptic area (vlPOA) contain putative sleep-regulatory neurons that exhibit elevated discharge rates during sleep compared with waking. Expression of c-Fos protein immunoreactivity (IR) in GABAergic neurons in the MnPN and the vlPOA is high in spontaneously sleeping rats and in rats undergoing ...

Galanin neurons in the medial preoptic area govern parental behavior [PDF]

Nature, 2014
Mice display robust, stereotyped behaviours towards pups: virgin males typically attack pups, whereas virgin females and sexually experienced males and females display parental care.

Effects of blocking developmental cell death on sexually dimorphic calbindin cell groups in the preoptic area and bed nucleus of the stria terminalis

Biology of Sex Differences, 2012
Background Calbindin-D28 has been used as a marker for the sexually dimorphic nucleus of the preoptic area (SDN-POA). Males have a distinct cluster of calbindin-immunoreactive (ir) cells in the medial preoptic area (CALB-SDN) that is reduced or absent in

The "Ram Effect": A "Non-Classical" Mechanism for Inducing LH Surges in Sheep [PDF]

, 2016
During spring sheep do not normally ovulate but exposure to a ram can induce ovulation. In some ewes an LH surge is induced immediately after exposure to a ram thus raising questions about the control of this precocious LH surge.
