Mathieson W, Wilkinson M, Brown R, Bond T, Taylor S, Neumann P
Brain Res . 2002 Oct; 952(2):170-5. PMID: 12376177
C57BL/6J and DBA/2J inbred mice differ in aspects of maternal behavior and in the morphology of the medial preoptic nucleus (MPO), suggesting a possible association. DBA/2J mice have a compact...

Mathieson W, Taylor S, Marshall M, Neumann P
J Comp Neurol . 2000 Nov; 428(2):254-65. PMID: 11064365
The medial preoptic nucleus (MPO), which is involved in sexual and maternal behaviors, contains neuronal clusters that have been described as being sexually dimorphic in size and neuropeptide content in...

Brown R, Mathieson W, Stapleton J, Neumann P
Physiol Behav . 1999 Nov; 67(4):599-605. PMID: 10549899
Inbred strains of mice exhibit different patterns of maternal behavior, providing material for studies of genetic influences on the expression of maternal behavior. Beginning 1 day after birth, maternal behavior...

LEGER J, Mathieson W
Brain Behav Evol . 1997 Jan; 50(5):304-12. PMID: 9360006
Bombesin is a member of a class of neuroactive chemicals that have potent thermoregulatory effects in ectothermic and endothermic vertebrate species. Bombesin-like peptides are found in the brains of ectothermic...

LEGER J, Mathieson W
Brain Behav Evol . 1997 Jan; 49(2):63-77. PMID: 9031731
Amphibians rely exclusively on behavioral thermoregulation to maintain body temperature within species- and developmental stage-specific critical limits. Several members of the bombesin family of peptides and histamine are included in...

Mathieson W
Histochem Cell Biol . 1996 Apr; 105(4):305-18. PMID: 9072187
Arginine vasotocin (AVT) is a neurotransmitter in the amphibian central nervous system and is released from the neurohypophysis in the regulation of hydromineral balance and other homeostatic functions. Many amphibians...

Wilkinson M, Mathieson W, Pittman Q
Brain Res . 1993 Oct; 625(2):342-6. PMID: 8275318
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is an endogenous antipyretic which acts in the ventral septal area (VSA) of the brain following its release from terminals of neurons from the bed nucleus of...

Fyda D, Mathieson W, Cooper K, Veale W
Brain Res . 1990 Apr; 512(2):243-7. PMID: 2354361
The infusion of either 30 micrograms/microliters (approx. 100 micrograms/kg/h) of sodium salicylate or 10 ng/microliters (10(-5) M) arginine vasopressin within the ventral septal area of the Brattleboro rat brain reduced...

Mathieson W, Federico P, Veale W, Pittman Q
Brain Res . 1989 May; 486(1):49-55. PMID: 2720434
Arginine vasopressin, released from nerve terminals in the septal region, probably exerts endogenous antipyretic activity. A major source of vasopressin to this area is the bed nucleus of the stria...

Mathieson W, Maler L
J Comp Physiol A . 1988 Aug; 163(4):489-506. PMID: 3184011
An in vitro brain slice preparation of the electrosensory lateral line lobe (ELL) of weakly electric fish was developed. The morphology of this slice was studied and revealed that most...
