Microtine rodents provide an excellent model for the study of the neurobiology of social bonds. In this review, we discuss how the presence of a microsatellite sequence in the prairie vole vasopressin receptor gene may determine vasopressin receptor binding patterns in the brain and how these patterns may in turn affect social behavior.
田鼠是研究社会关系神经生物学的绝佳模型。在这篇综述中,我们讨论了草原田鼠血管加压素受体基因中微卫星序列的存在如何决定大脑中血管加压素受体的结合模式,以及这些模式又如何反过来影响社会行为。
