abstract：:LHRH administration is reported to facilitate male sexual behavior. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether male sexual behavior is associated with the number of LHRH neurons in the forebrain in middle-aged rats. Male Long-Evans rats (18-19 months) were assigned to three groups on the basis of sexual p...

abstract：:In the brain, the stress system plays an important role in motivating continued alcohol use and relapse. The neuropeptide substance P and the neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1R) are involved in the stress response and drug reward systems. Recent findings have shown that the binding of ligands to NK1Rs decreases the self-admi...
