Milk ejection burst-like electrical activity evoked in supraoptic oxytocin neurons in slices from lactating rats.

abstract：:The posterior nucleus of thalamus (PO) is a higher-order nucleus involved in sensorimotor processing, including nociception. An important characteristic of PO is its wide range of activity profiles that vary across states of arousal, thought to underlie differences in somatosensory perception subject to attention and ...
