Oxyrine is usually called “bonding hormone” to help the establishment of social connection and improvement of thinking. Researchers use an advanced technology to activate part of the brain (called the hypothalamic brain) to produce oxytocytes. These cells are triggered by a special chemical that only activates the targeted cells. When active, the cell sends the signal to another brain area, that is, the superucleuclear, which is essential for memory. The results showed that compared with unprocessed mice, new objects that given chemical exploration have explored longer new objects, which shows that identifying memory is better.
Scientists at Tokyo University of Sciences revealed the key role of oxytocin in memory. Under the leadership of Dr. Akiyoshi Saitoh, the team has studied how to improve the ability to identify objects in specific brain ways involving oxytocin. Their discovery is published on PLOS One, which provides important insights on how this natural chemicals affect mice’s memory.
Dr. Saitoh said: “The results of the survey showed that the oxytocytopenia cells in the hypothalamic brain played a vital role in the memory related to identification objects.” The study found that activating this brain pathway caused the upper nuclear nuclear nucleus A significant increase in brain cell activity in the nuclear. These changes are related to the stronger memory of new objects, which lasted for several days, which was obvious signs of long -term memory.
The importance of this discovery exceeds basic research. It is pointed out that the method of working in the brain opens the possibility for the treatment of development and memory -related issues. For example, the therapy involving oxytocin may one day help people with dementia, and the memory ability gradually decreases. “Our results are consistent with earlier research, indicating that oxytocin can reverse brain cell damage caused by harmful protein related to Alzheimer’s disease,” Dr. Saitoh added.
Obviously, this study emphasizes the strong impact of oxytocin on memory, especially through the interaction with the key part of the brain to manage memory. These findings can stimulate people’s new breakthroughs in understanding and creating memory disorders. As scientists continue to explore the role of oxytocin, their potential to enhance human memory and respond to cognitive challenges has become more exciting.
