Neuroendocrine regulation of maternal behaviours in birds
Avian reproductive system is regulated by the integrated system, the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. The HPG axis involves two major neuroendocrine systems controlling avian reproduction. These neuroendocrine systems include the chicken gonadotropin releasing hormone/follicle stimulating hormone-luteinizing hormone (GnRH/FSH-LH), and vasoactive intestinal peptide/prolactin (VIP/PRL) n...
متن کاملNeuroendocrine regulation of appetitive ingestive behavior
Food availability in nature is often irregular, and famine is commonplace. Increased motivation to engage in ingestive behaviors increases the chance of survival, providing additional potential opportunities for reproduction. Because of the advantages conferred by entraining ingestive behavior to environmental conditions, neuroendocrine mechanisms regulating the motivation to acquire and ingest...
متن کاملEmotional context, maternal behavior and emotion regulation.
This study investigated the importance of emotion-eliciting context (positive and negative) and mother's behaviors (constrained and involved) on toddlers' emotion regulation behavioral strategies, emotional expressiveness and intensity, during three episodes eliciting fear, frustration/anger and positive affect. Fifty-five children between 18 and 26 months of age and their mothers participated ...
متن کاملPaternal influence on female behavior: the role of Peg3 in exploration, olfaction, and neuroendocrine regulation of maternal behavior of female mice.
Genomic imprinting represents a mechanism through which parent-of-origin effects on offspring development may be mediated. However, investigation of the influence of imprinted genes on behavior has been limited. Here the authors investigate the role of the maternally imprinted/paternally expressed gene, Peg3, in several aspects of behavior using both 129Sv- and B6-Peg3 mutant female mice. Virgi...
متن کاملNeuronal serotonin in the regulation of maternal behavior in rodents.
Maternal behavior is probably the most important pro-social behavior in female mammals, ensuring both the development and survival of her offspring. Signals driving maternal behaviors are complex and involve several brain areas, most of which are innervated by serotonin. Serotonin transmission influences maternal processes indirectly through release of maternally-relevant hormones such as prola...
