Hormones and Behavior was first published 50 years ago including some articles related to the hormonal regulation of sexual behavior in different species. Since then, this research field has produced outstanding discoveries that have contributed to our understanding of the control of sexual behavior. The refinement of classical techniques and the development of new experimental tools has opened the door to a new era of research that will allow us to understand different aspects of sexual behavior. It would also expand the possible extrapolation from animal models to understand human sexuality and its dysfunctions. In this review, we summarize some of the most recent findings about sexual behavior in both sexes including the refinement of classical methods of study with new approaches and questions as well as the development of new methods trying to explain mechanisms of action on motivational and consummatory elements of mating behavior. We also reviewed other aspects that modulate sexual behavior such as attractivity, olfactory signals and learning which model mate selection. Additionally, we described studies demonstrating that sexual behavior induces permanent brain modifications in neuronal circuits. Finally, we briefly describe recent contributions on animal models of human sexuality dysfunctions which, although with their own limitations, are under continuous refining.

啮齿动物的性行为:我们从这里去哪里?

激素和行为首次发表于50年前,其中包括一些与不同物种性行为的激素调节有关的文章。从那时起,该研究领域产生了杰出的发现,这些发现有助于我们对控制性行为的理解。经典技术的完善和新实验工具的开发为新时代的研究打开了大门,这将使我们能够了解性行为的各个方面。它还可以扩展从动物模型进行的推断,以了解人类的性行为及其功能障碍。在这篇评论中 我们总结了有关两性行为的最新发现,包括用新的方法和问题完善经典的研究方法,以及开发新的方法来解释交配行为的动机和完善因素的作用机理。我们还回顾了调节性行为的其他方面,例如吸引力,嗅觉信号和学习模拟伴侣选择的方面。此外,我们描述了一些研究,这些研究表明性行为会引起神经元回路中永久性的大脑修饰。最后,我们简要描述了对人类性功能障碍动物模型的最新贡献,尽管它们具有自身的局限性,但仍在不断完善中。我们还回顾了调节性行为的其他方面,例如吸引力,嗅觉信号和学习模拟伴侣选择的方面。此外,我们描述了一些研究,这些研究表明性行为会引起神经元回路中永久性的大脑修饰。最后,我们简要描述了对人类性功能障碍动物模型的最新贡献,尽管它们有其自身的局限性,但仍在不断完善中。我们还回顾了其他可调节性行为的方面,例如吸引力,嗅觉信号和学习模拟伴侣选择的方面。此外,我们描述了一些研究,这些研究表明性行为会引起神经元回路中永久性的大脑修饰。最后,我们简要描述了对人类性功能障碍动物模型的最新贡献,尽管它们具有自身的局限性,但仍在不断完善中。
