So was doing some

research on stuff and came across this...

Neural oxytocinergic systems as genomic

targets for hormones and as modulators of hormone-dependent behaviors


ABSTRACT



At the molecular level,

estradiol turns on the gene for oxytocin in a subset of paraventricular hypothalamic neurons and

turns on the gene for the oxytocin receptor in other limbic and hypothalamic cell groups. As a result,

oxytocin deposition, whose signal is transduced both through G alpha (q/11) and Gi to stimulate

phosphatidylinositol turnover, facilitates electrical activity in certain hypothalamic neurons. Consequently,

affiliative behaviors including those closely associated with reproduction--mating behaviors and

parental behaviors--are promoted. One important aspect of this effect is the preservation of instinctive

behaviors associated with reproduction, in the face of disturbances due to mild stress.

So any thoughts on this? Seems like it would be an effective addition to those new

multi-phero mixes out there. Also did a search on Realm for Women but everybody is vauge on the issue. Anybody have

anything CONCRETE on this?
