The involvement of actin, calcium channels and exocytosis proteins in somato-dendritic oxytocin and vasopressin release

Hypothalamic magnocellular neurons release vasopressin and oxytocin not only from their axon terminals into the blood, but also from their somata and dendrites into the extracellular space of the brain, and this can be regulated independently. Differential release of neurotransmitters from different...
