Dendritically released transmitters cooperate via autocrine and retrograde actions to inhibit afferent excitation in rat brain

Oxytocin is released from supraoptic magnocellular neurones and is thought to act at presynaptic receptors to inhibit transmitter release. We now show that this effect is mediated by endocannabinoids, but that oxytocin nonetheless plays an important role in endocannabinoid signalling. WIN55,212-2, a...
