Penile desensitization does not affect postcopulatory genital autogrooming in rats: evidence for central motor patterning.

abstract：:The vigilance reaction is characterized by a large bradycardia, a pressor response, and inspiratory apnea in anesthetized rabbits and the inhibition of movement in conscious rabbits. This affective response pattern can be elicited by electrical stimulation of the dorsolateral hypothalamus (the hypothalamic vigilance a...
