Oxytocin specifically participates in social memory encoding by exciting stellate neurons in the lateral entorhinal cortex
Introduction Oxytocin (OXT) has emerged as a key neuromodulator of social cognition, yet the precise neural circuits underlying its role in social memory remain poorly defined. In this study, we identify a specific mechanism by which OXT regulates social memory encoding through the lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC), a cr...
