“…On the other hand, HY male rats allow us to show that this innate behavioral pattern is strongly correlated with spontaneous penile erections in a very short time window of only 3 min; in fact, 50% of yawns and penile erections happen together (Holmgren et al, 1985). Yawning frequency also correlated with the number of penile erections after systemic administration of D 2 -like dopaminergic agonists such as apomorphine in low doses, bromocriptine, or (−)-quinpirole (Urbá-Holmgren et al, 1993;Eguibar et al, 2003); this behavioral correlation is present even in a myelin mutant rat with progressive demyelination (Eguibar et al, 2012).…”
