Induction of mating behavior by apomorphine in sexually sated rats

TL;DR: Hormonal activation of the medial preoptic area (MPOA) is most effective, although implants in the medial amygdala (MeA) can also stimulate mounting in castrates.

TL;DR: The role of learning in sexual excitement, in behaviors that bring about the opportunity to mate, in courtship and solicitation displays, insexual arousal and copulatory behaviors, in sexual partner preferences, and the short- and long-term influence of copulatory experience on sexual and reproductive function is examined.

TL;DR: The role of the PFC is reviewed, finding that its neural activity reflects learned task contingencies, concepts, and rules and may provide the foundation for the complex behavior of primates.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the neurobiology of male sexual behavior, which assures that mating will occur with the optimal partner at the most appropriate time and place, in order to pass parental genotypes onto the next generation.

TL;DR: These data provide a neurochemical basis for the well-known interactions between dopaminergic drugs and male sexual behaviour and demonstrate the feasibility of using brain microdialysis to elucidate the neurochemical correlates of motivated behaviour.

TL;DR: As measured by ejaculation-frequency, the curve of sexual recovery is negatively accelerated and probably reaches asymptote after 7 to 10 days of rest, and various other measures in addition to ejaculations-frequency support this conclusion.

TL;DR: DA and DOPAC were significantly increased during copulation, but not during mild tail pinch, consistent with studies showing increases in N. Acc.
