AVP facilitates AMPA-induced currents in OXT neurons. A, AVP increases the AMPA-induced inward currents in OXT neurons. This facilitation is blocked by the OXT receptor-specific antagonist [des-glycinamide9,d(CH2)51,O-Me-Tyr2,Tyr4,Orn8]-vasotocin. B, OXT has a similar effect on AMPA-induced currents in OXT neurons. C, Summary bar graph showing the changes in AMPA-induced currents compared with control. *p < 0.05.
