Social isolation modulates appetite and avoidance behavior via a common oxytocinergic circuit in larval zebrafish
Social interactions are known to guide behaviour, but how different species represent social stimuli is poorly understood. In this study, the authors demonstrate how social cues in the larval zebrafish suppress an oxytocinergic circuit, which regulates avoidance and feeding behaviour.
