Extended amygdala corticotropin-releasing hormone neurons regulate sexually dimorphic changes in pair bond formation following social defeat in prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster)

Maria C. Tickerhoof, Lina K. Nerio Morales, Jeff Goff, Erika M. Vitale, Adam S. Smith

This study shows that social defeat affects pair bond formation differently in male and female prairie voles, with BNST CRH neurons playing a sex-specific role in regulating these changes.

Opposite-sex pairing alters social interaction-induced GCaMP and dopamine activity in the insular cortex of male prairie voles

Erika M. Vitale, Amina H. Tbaba, Kaitlyn Tam, Kyle R. Gossman, Adam S. Smith

The paper examines how opposite-sex pairing affects calcium and dopamine activity in the insular cortex of male prairie voles and identifies changes in D1 and D2 receptor mRNA expression associated with pair bonding.
