DOI: 10.1037/bne0000286
Abstract: The expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) are regulated by gonadal hormone signaling and are expressed in brain areas that are important for sexual behaviors. Accordingly, BDNF and… read more here.

Endocannabinoids Interact With the Dopaminergic System to Increase Sexual Motivation: Lessons From the Sexual Satiety Phenomenon
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.3389/fnbeh.2019.00184
Abstract: In male rats, copulation to satiety induces a long-lasting sexual inhibitory state, considered to rely on a decreased sexual motivation. Dopaminergic transmission at the mesolimbic system plays a central role in the regulation of male… read more here.
