This "Bible of Neurohypophysial Research" goes far beyond basic physiology. In 46 chapters, leading scientists in the field, who met at the 7th World Congress on Neurohypophysial Hormones in Regensburg 2007, highlight their latest research on vasopressin and oxytocin, thereby covering multiple biological aspects from peptide synthesis, peripheral and central release patterns, mechanisms of action to peptide receptors that mediate effects relevant to stress management, emotionality and psychopathology. The capacity of both peptides to regulate various aspects of social behaviours (including pair-bonding, aggression, maternal love, trust, sexual behaviour) is a main focus, as are their interactions with a variety of other neuromodulators and transmitters. Moreover, the book illustrates the recent development of vasopressin and oxytocin agonists/antagonists as potential drugs to treat not only disturbances of body fluid homeostasis, but also mental disorders, including social phobia, autism, anxiety, and depression. It is thus the promising combination of basic and clinical research, comprising physiology, neuroendocrinology, behavioral biology, pharmacology, imaging and molecular genetics that makes this book an essential addition to experts in the field and scientists new to the field alike."--BOOK JACKET.
