What is Oxytocin?

Oxytocin is a nine-amino-acid cyclic peptide hormone naturally produced by the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary gland. It is one of the most extensively studied neuropeptides, with research spanning social behavior, pair bonding, stress response, and reproductive physiology. In research settings, oxytocin is used to investigate neuroendocrine pathways and receptor-mediated signaling.

➡️ Suitable for neuroendocrine studies, behavioral research, and reproductive physiology investigations.

Key Research Observations

• Neuroendocrine Signaling: Binds to oxytocin receptors (OXTR) in central and peripheral tissues.
• Behavioral Studies: Central compound in social behavior and bonding research.
• Reproductive Physiology: Investigated for uterine and mammary gland receptor activity.
• Stress Response Research: Studied for HPA axis modulation and anxiolytic pathway investigations.
