Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014 In 2005, Kosfeld et al. published their now seminal paper showing that intranasal oxytocin (OXT) administration increased interpersonal trust (Kosfeld et al., 2005). This finding spawned broad interest into the effects of OXT on social and emotional behavior in humans (Bos et al., 2012), and its implications for translational medicine (Meyer-Lindenberg

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

Oxytocin and social pretreatment have similar effects on processing of negative emotional faces in healthy adult males [PDF]
, 2013 Oxytocin has been shown to affect several aspects of human social cognition, including facial emotion processing. There is also evidence that social stimuli (such as eye-contact) can effectively modulate endogenous oxytocin levels.
