# behav: cry / not cry, babe ... POMC neurons modulate the crying behavior of pups (among mice)


<< Infants cry when separated from their mothers. Here, (AA) show that POMC (pro-opiomelanocortin) neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus—via ß-endorphin production and signaling—modulate the crying behavior of mouse pups. The effect of POMC neurons on vocal behavior depends on the expression of µ-opioid receptors, the main receptor for ß-endorphin. Thus, POMC neurons in the hypothalamus modulate infant cry through opioid signaling. >>️
