Localization of kappa opioid receptors in oxytocin magnocellular neurons in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei.

abstract：:Event-related potentials (ERP) were measured when pleasant, neutral or unpleasant pictures were presented in the context of similarly valenced stimuli, and compared to ERPs elicited when the same pictures were viewed in an intermixed context. An early ERP component (150-300 ms) measured over occipital and fronto-centr...
