Oxytocin neurons in the paraventricular and supraoptic hypothalamic nuclei bidirectionally modulate food intake.

In a 2-h consumption test with access to an 11% sucrose solution without chow available, activation of SON OT neurons increased cumulative sucrose intake at the 0.5-h and 1-h time points ( Figure 3 G), but these trends did not reach statistical significance (p values < 0.07 and <0.06, respectively).
