Learning about oxytocin: Pharmacologic and behavioral issues
2014, Biological PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :Table 1 and Tables S1 and S2 in Supplement 1 provide a comprehensive overview of all of the reviewed papers describing the administration of OT to animal models (mainly rodents, but also birds and molluscs). Table 1 shows the studies reporting enhanced learning and memory (5–10), while Table S1 and Table S2, respectively, in Supplement 1 show the studies reporting impaired learning and memory (6,11–21) or no effect (10,13,15,22–27). Most papers consider the effects of OT on learning and memory in mice and rats, but findings in elderly monkeys indicate that OT (4–128 μg/kg) subcutaneously (SC) administered 30 minutes before the task impaired memory in three of the six but led to subtle but replicable improvements in the number of correct choices in two monkeys (28).
