Increased Serum and Urinary Oxytocin Concentrations after Nasal Administration in Beagle Dogs
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2017 In recent years more and more studies have revealed the effect of extraneous oxytocin on the social behavior of dogs. The distribution of administered oxytocin in different physiologically relevant compartments is important because this knowledge forms ...

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2014 One of the most meaningful results recently achieved in bone research has been to reveal that the pituitary hormones have profound effect on bone, so that the pituitary-bone axis has become one of the major topics in skeletal physiology. Here, we discuss the relevant evidence about the posterior pituitary hormone oxytocin (OT), previously thought to ...

Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 1965 Abstract N-Carbobenzoxy-S-methoxybenzyl-l-cysteinyl-l-tyrosyl-l-isoleucyl-l-glutaminyl-l-asparagin-yl-S-p-methoxybenzyl-l-cysteinyl-l-prolyl-l-leucylglycinamide (IX) was synthesized by the step-wise elongation method, and highly potent oxytocin was obtained from IX by treatment not only with sodium in liquid ammonia, but also with ...

Systemic effects of oxytocin on male sexual activity via the spinal ejaculation generator in rats
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2021 Oxytocin is produced in the hypothalamus and stimulates uterine contraction and milk ejection. While many people consider oxytocin to be a female hormone, it is reported that, in men, the plasma oxytocin level increases markedly after ejaculation ...

Endocrinologia Japonica, 1974 A specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay method for oxytocin and its application to the measurement of human plasma oxytocin levels are described. Antiserum tooxytocin was prepared in guinea pigs by repeated subcutaneous injections of synthetic oxytocin emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant.

An overview of the oxytocin-oxytocin receptor signaling network [PDF]
Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, 2016 Oxytocin, a nine amino acid long neuropeptide hormone, is synthesized in the hypothalamus and stored and released from the neural lobe of the pituitary gland. Although commonly known for its central role in the regulation of parturition and lactation, oxytocin signaling also plays a key role in modulating social behavior, evoking contentment ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The cellular actors of oxytocin signaling are under intense scrutiny. A brain‐wide anatomical and functional analysis in mice and rats reveals widespread expression of oxytocin receptors in astrocytes. These receptors are functionally active and, in the nucleus accumbens, selectively regulate male social affiliation.
