Abstract

Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) infusions of oxytocin (OXY) induce short-latency maternal behavior in estrogen-primed virgin rats. To investigate if brain OXY might have a role in the onset of maternal behavior at parturition, we have used both antisera to OXY and an analog antagonist of OXY, d(CH2)5–8-ornithine-vasotocin, to reduce the activity of endogenous OXY in a pregnancy-terminated preparation which yields reliable short-latency maternal behavior. Sprague-Dawley rats with lateral ventricle cannulae were ovariectomized and hysterectomized on day 16 of gestation; maternal behavior was stimulated by a s.c. injection of estradiol benzoate (EB). Effects of the i.c.v. infusion of antisera to OXY or of the i.c.v. infusion of d(CH2)5–8-ornithine-vasotocin on the latency to respond to pups were tested by presenting pups 48 h after surgery and EB treatment. Behavioral observations were made for the next 5 h and periodically over the next 5 days. Groups receiving either the antisera to OXY or the analog antagonist had significantly longer latencies to respond to pups than did control groups. In a separate experiment, i.c.v. infusion of d(CH2)5–8-ornithine-vasotocin was shown to have no effect on the performance of maternal behavior in lactating rats 5 days postpartum. These results suggest that OXY may have a role in promoting short-latency maternal behavior in steroid-primed female rats, but that it is probably not involved in sustaining this behavior during lactation.

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.
