Trainor,2007),交配对之间形成强有力的纽带,(配对键合),以及与这些键合相关的行为,如配偶守卫(选择性攻击)和父亲的照顾,已经研究不足,也许是由于缺乏适当的动物模型。这些行为在动物王国中相对罕见,在哺乳动物中只有3 - 5%的一夫一妻制物种表现出来(Kleiman,1977)。…

However studies investigating the underlying neurobiology of such behaviors have been scarce. Microtine rodents offer a unique comparative animal model to explore the neural processes responsible for pair bonding and its associated behaviors. Studies using monogamous prairie voles and other related species have recently offered insight into the neuroanatomical, neurobiological, and neurochemical underpinnings of social attachment. In this review, we will discuss the utility of the microtine rodents in comparative studies by exploring their natural history and social behavior in the laboratory. We will then summarize the data implicating vasopressin, oxytocin, and dopamine in the regulation of pair bonding. Finally, we will discuss the ways in which these neurochemical systems may interact to mediate this complex behavior. Social behavior involves complex interactions between individuals and is displayed, in varying degrees, throughout the animal kingdom. Mating and aggression, for example, are common to species that display disparate life strategies, while the formation of strong bonds between adults and the bi-parental care of offspring are generally only displayed by species that follow monogamous life strategies. The formation of strong social bonds is essential for individual well-being, and in humans, is a critical component of mental health. As such, an inability to do so is used as a diagnostic component of various psychological disorders, including autism, social anxiety, and schizo-phrenia (Volkmar, 2001). Study of the neurobiology underlying social bonding may provide insight into the causes and treatment of such disorders. Although various animal models have been developed to study social behaviors ubiquitous to mammalian species, including mating, maternal care, and aggression (Seay et al. Trainor, 2007), the formation of strong bonds between mating pairs (pair bonding), and behaviors associated with these bonds, such as mate guarding (selective aggression) and paternal care, have been understudied, perhaps due to the lack of appropriate animal models. These behaviors are relatively uncommon in the animal kingdom, and in mammals are only displayed by the 3–5% of species that are monogamous (Kleiman, 1977). …
