Modelling Adaptation through Social Allostasis: Modulating the Effects of Social Touch with Oxytocin in Embodied Agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Social allostasis is a mechanism of adaptation that permits individuals to dynamically adapt their physiology to changing physical and social conditions.

Circular Dichroism of Oxytocin and Several Oxytocin Analogues [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1968
The circular dichroic spectra of oxytocin and four analogues of oxytocin are presented at several pH values in the wave length interval, 220 to 320 mµ. The analogues are 2-isoleucine- and 2-glycine-oxytocin, in which the tyrosine residues in Position 2 have been replaced by isoleucine and glycine, respectively, as well as deamino-oxytocin and deamino-2-

Intranasal Inhalation of Oxytocin Improves Face Processing in Developmental Prosopagnosia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Developmental prosopagnosia (DP) is characterised by a severe, lifelong impairment in face recognition. Little work has attempted to improve face processing in these individuals, but intriguingly, recent evidence suggests oxytocin can improve face ...

Regulators of G protein signalling proteins in the human myometrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The contractile state of the human myometrium is controlled by extracellular signals that promote relaxation or contraction. Many of these signals function through G proteincoupled receptors at the cell surface, stimulating heterotrimeric G proteins and ...

Preliminary Evidence That CD38 Moderates the Association of Neuroticism on Amygdala-Subgenual Cingulate Connectivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
CD38 genetic variation has been associated with autism spectrum disorders and social anxiety disorder, which may result from CD38's regulation of oxytocin secretion.

Radioimmunoassay for Oxytocin

open access: yesEndocrinologia 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.

The involvement of actin, calcium channels and exocytosis proteins in somato-dendritic oxytocin and vasopressin release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hypothalamic magnocellular neurons release vasopressin and oxytocin not only from their axon terminals into the blood, but also from their somata and dendrites into the extracellular space of the brain, and this can be regulated independently ...

An overview of the oxytocin-oxytocin receptor signaling network [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Oxytocin at physiological concentrations evokes adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) release from corticotrophs by increasing intracellular free calcium mobilized mainly from intracellular stores. Oxytocin displays synergistic or additive effects on ACTH-releasing factor or arginine vasopressin-induced ACTH secretion, respectively [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The potency of oxytocin (OT) in evoking ACTH secretion by isolated, superfused rat adenohypophyseal corticotrophs and its enhancement by CRF and arginine vasopressin (AVP) were analyzed.
