Comparative Analysis of Gene Expression Profiles of Human Dental Fluorosis and Kashin-Beck Disease.

abstract：:Oxytocin (OXT) is an important neuromodulator of social behaviors via activation of both oxytocin receptors (OXTR) and vasopressin (AVP) 1a receptors (AVPR1a). Marmosets are neotropical primates with a modified OXT ligand (Pro8-OXT), and this ligand shows significant coevolution with traits including social monogamy a...
