Pup defence in lactating rats: The underlying neuropeptide signalling and their interactions in the nucleus accumbens shell Maternal aggression is a core feature of rodent maternal behaviour to defend their offspring from potential threats and is modulated by corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and oxytocin (OXT) systems ...

Long story about the nucleus accumbens in short:
- Infusion of CRF, UCN3 or oxytocin antagonist in the shell impaired maternal aggression
- Oxytocin release increased during maternal aggression
