Oxytocin in the nucleus accumbens shell reverses CRFR2-evoked passive stress-coping after partner loss in monogamous male prairie voles

Highlights • Male prairie voles show high passive stress-coping after loss of female partner. • This is mediated via activation of CRFR2 in nucleus accumbens shell. • Chronic activation of CRFR2 is capable of impairing the oxytocin system. • The oxytocin system gets compromised at multiple levels. •...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Male prairie voles show high passive stress-coping after loss of female partner. • This is mediated via activation of CRFR2 in nucleus accumbens shell. • Chronic activation of CRFR2 is capable of impairing the oxytocin system. • The oxytocin system gets compromised at multiple levels. • Suppression of oxytocin signaling is likely to encourage reunion with the partner.
