[Effect of oxytocin on the activity of posterior hypothalamic neurons in the rat].
Changes of unit activity in different nuclei of the posterior hypothalamus induced by intravenous oxytocin injections were studied in acute experiments on Wistar rats anaesthetized with nembutal. Influence of nonapeptide was dose-dependent. Latencies of various neuronal reactions were different. Mechanisms of oxytocin regulation of neuronal activity in the posterior hypothalamus are discussed.
