    Neurons in the PIN region regulate social hair management behavior


    The researchers found that through chemical genetics, the chronic activation of female rat PIN regional neurons promotes social hair management behavior (peer hair management behavior), and social hair management behavior
    after inhibiting neuronal activity in this region.

    The PIN brain region is projected downstream to the brain area

    After the anterograde tracer virus is injected into the female rat PIN, it can be projected to multiple brain regions
    such as the marginal subcortical layer (ILC), lateral septal nucleus (LS), MPOA, end-striated ventral nucleus, hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), medial amygdala (MeA), dorsoposterior hypothalamic nucleus (DMH), central gray matter (PAG) around the midbrain aqueduct, and parabrachial lateral nucleus (LPB).

    PIL ➟MPOA peptide energy loop

    Social behavior in social settings activates MPOA region inhibitory neurons close to PTH2-positive fibers
    .

    summary

    In this paper, through viral tracing and chemical genetics, we revealed the peptide-capable neural circuits that regulate the social hair management behavior of female rats: posterior medial nuclei expressing PTH2-positive neurons projected onto the medial preoptic region inhibitory neurons
    .
