Cameron NM, Carey P, Erskine MS (2004) Medullary noradrenergic neurons release norepinephrine in the medial amygdala in females in response to mating stimulation sufficient for pseudopregnancy. Brain Res 1022(1-2):137-147. doi: 10.1016/j.brainres.2004.07.022
Summary: Norepinephrine (NE) plays an important role in female reproductive function. While the ventral noradrenergic bundle is known to be necessary for transmitting the pseudopregnancy (PSP) response, the mechanism by which this occurs is not understood. The authors administered 20 ng of Anti-DBH-SAP (Cat. #IT-03) to the left posterodorsal medial amygdala of ovariectomized rats. The results indicate that NE may play an important role in the establishment of PSP.
