Description
A peer-reviewed research article from Europe PMC (2026). Maternal aggression enables lactating females to protect their vulnerable young1,2, yet its rapid emergence after birth and swift decline when pups are absent remain poorly understood. Our study reveals the critical role of the pathway from posterior amygdala cells expressing oestrogen receptor alpha (PAEsr1) to the ventrolateral part of ventromedial hypothalamus cells expressing neuropeptide Y receptor 2 (VMHvlNpy2r) in the rise and fall of maternal aggression.
