Distribution of oxytocin and vasopressin- immunoreactive neurons in the brain of the eusocial mole rat (Fukomys anselli).
Original language description
Fukomys anselli, a subterranean, eusocial rodent from Zambia, lives in multigenerational families consisting of a single monogamous breeding pair and their nonreproductive offspring. Oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (VP) as well as the distribution of OT- and VP-receptors may influence social behavior and pair bonding. In this study, we examined expression patterns of OT and VP in the brains of F. anselli and the common laboratory rat. As in other species, the majority of OT-ir and VP-ir neurons was foundin the paraventricular (Pa) and supraoptic (SO) nuclei, and scattered labeling throughout the preoptic and anterior hypothalamic areas. We found no difference in either quality or quantity of OT- and VP-ir neurons between individuals of different socialand reproductive ranks. Equally unexpected was the finding of specific OT-immunoreactivity in neurons of the mammillary complex of F. anselli that was not found in rats.
