Lactation induces increased IPSC bursting in oxytocinergic neurons

Abstract Hypothalamic magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs) undergo dramatic structural reorganization during lactation in female rats that is thought to contribute to the pulsatile secretion of oxytocin critical for milk ejection. MNCs from male rats generate robust bursts of GABAergic synaptic...
