2022, Frontiers in NeuroendocrinologyCitation Excerpt :In addition to female sexual behaviour, the habenula is also implicated in the onset of maternal and paternal behaviours (Corodimas et al., 1993; Corodimas et al., 1992; De Jong et al., 2010; Lonstein et al., 2000; Matthews-Felton et al., 1995). Although maternal behaviour is primed by estrogen (Moltz et al., 1970), implants of estradiol into the LHb fail to stimulate maternal behaviour (Matthews Felton et al., 1999), suggesting that the modulation of maternal behaviour is mediated via indirect action of estrogen on the habenula. Several brain regions that are involved in estrogen-primed maternal behaviour are linked with the habenula (Felton et al., 1999; Olazábal et al., 2013).
