Salivary and plasmatic oxytocin are not reliable trait markers of the physiology of the oxytocin system in humans

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Single measurements of salivary and plasmatic oxytocin are used as indicators of the physiology of the oxytocin system. However, questions remain about whether they are sufficiently stable to provide valid trait markers of the physiology of the oxytocin ...

Dwelling in prolonged grief: Resting state functional connectivity during oxytocin and placebo administration

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 245-257, January 2023., 2023
In older adults who experienced the death of a partner, higher prolonged grief symptoms were associated with less anticorrelation between retrosplenial default network and cingulo‐opercular networks during resting state, and more dwell time in a dynamic functional connectivity state involving positive correlations between large‐scale brain networks ...

17β-estradiol upregulates oxytocin and the oxytocin receptor in C2C12 myotubes [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Background The endocrinology of skeletal muscle is highly complex and many issues about hormone action in skeletal muscle are still unresolved. Aim of the work is to improve our knowledge on the relationship between skeletal muscle and 17β-estradiol ...

Effect of oxytocin on free intracellular Ca2+ levels and progesterone release by human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Oxytocin and its receptor are found in the corpus luteum in a variety of species, including the human. In the present study we used fura-2 microfluorimetry to investigate whether activation of the oxytocin receptor of cultured human granulosa-lutein ...

Maternal body mass index and oxytocin in augmentation of labour in nulliparous women: a prospective observational study

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2021
Objective To evaluate oxytocin use for augmentation of labour in relation to body mass index (BMI) on admission to the labour ward, focusing on cumulative oxytocin dose and maximum rate of oxytocin infusion during the first stage of labour.Design ...

Oxytocin is an age-specific circulating hormone that is necessary for muscle maintenance and regeneration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle declines with age. Previous studies suggest that this process can be reversed by exposure to young circulation; however, systemic age-specific factors responsible for this phenomenon are largely unknown.
