By contrast, the accessory olfactory system is thought to be involved in the detection of odors that influence a variety of reproductive and aggressive behaviors (Keverne 1999). Sensory neurons are located in the vomeronasal organ (VNO) and detect pheromones which gain access to the VNO by a pumping mechanism (Meredith and O Connell, 1979). VNO neurons send projections to the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB). Mitral cells of the AOB project in turn to the medial nucleus of the amygdala olfactory information is then dispatched to several hypothalamic regions such as the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, the medial preoptic area and the ventromedial hypothalamus (Scalia and Winans 1975).

Within the lateral and ventromedial hypothalamus the neurotransmitter amines norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) play a complex synergistic role in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure (Meguid et al. 2000). In the lateral hypothalamus of laboratory animals, increased release of NE and DA is associated with inhibition of feeding, whereas in the ventromedial hypothalamus it is associated with stimulation of feeding. By contrast, release of 5-HT in the ventromedial hypothalamus is associated with inhibition of feeding. [Pg.12]

Oxytocin is synthesized in peripheral tissues, including the uterus, placenta, amnion, corpus luteum, testes, and heart as well as the brain. Oxytocin receptors are on neurons in many parts of the brain and spinal cord, including the amygdala, ventromedial hypothalamus, septum, and brain stem. [Pg.190]
