Hippocampal oxytocin receptors are necessary for discrimination of social stimuli
While oxytocin is known to be critical for social recognition, the functions of oxytocin receptors (Oxtrs) in the hippocampus are not known. This study shows that Oxtrs in anterior dentate gyrus and CA2/CA3 pyramidal cells recruit population-based coding to mediate discrimination of social stimuli.
