Vasopressin cells in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis of the rat: sex differences and the influence of androgens
Abstract
A sex difference in the number of vasopressin-immunoreactive cells was found in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis of the rat. The number of cells found in males exceeded the female corresponding value. A sharp decrease in the number of vasopressin-immunoreactive cells was noted 21 weeks after the castration of adult male rats. This decline could be reversed completely by a 5-week testosterone substitution therapy.

“For example, compared to females, males have more AVP-expressing cells in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) and medial amygdala (MeA) and denser AVP-axonal projections to limbic brain regions, especially to the lateral septum (LS) (De Vries et al 1981; van Leeuwen et al., 1985; Szot & Dorsa, 1993).”
From Sex-specific modulation of juvenile social play by vasopressin (2013) · cites this paper as van Leeuwen et al., 1985
In the citing paper
“A potential role of AVP in male aggression is largely based on the observation that male rats castrated as adults show reduced AVP-ir in the MeP/pBNST→LS circuit as well as reduced levels of intermale aggression (Koolhaas, Moor, Hiemstra, & Bohus, 1991; Miller et al., 1992; Szot & Dorsa, 1993; van Leeuwen et al., 1985).”

In the citing paper
“In rats, males have more AVP-expressing neurons in the BNST and MeA (Szot & Dorsa, 1993; van Leeuwen, Caffe, & De Vries, 1985) and have a higher density of AVP-immunoreactive (AVP-ir) fibers in the lateral septum (LS) and lateral habenular nucleus (De Vries, Buijs, & Swaab, 1981) compared to females.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
