Loss of myometrial oxytocin receptors during oxytocin-induced and oxytocin-augmented labour
Reproduction, 2000Abstract Oxytocin is used widely for the induction and augmentation of labour, but there is little information about the dynamics of oxytocin receptors in human myometrium during parturition, and the possible effect of oxytocin infusion.

Oxytocin receptors in the ovine corpus luteum
Journal of Endocrinology, 1989ABSTRACT There is inconclusive evidence that oxytocin acts directly on the corpus luteum and affects steroidogenesis. Since any such action would probably be mediated by oxytocin receptors, these should be present in luteal tissue. In this study, homogenates of corpora lutea from both pregnant and non-pregnant ewes were examined for oxytocin ...

Identification of a myometrial oxytocin‐receptor protein
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1988The specific binding of [3H]oxytoxin to uterine membrane peparations derived from different species at late pregnancy was examined. The highest receptor density (bmax value) was found in membranes derived from the myometria of guinea pigs between day 60 post‐conception (bmax= 3.6 ± 0.1 pmol/mg) and day 65 (bmax= 4.4 ± 0.1 pmol/mg). The similarity of Kd

Oxytocin Receptors and Neurobehavior
2016Research across species has shown that the neuropeptide oxytocin plays a key role in the regulation of social cognition and behavior. It is important for attachment, social exploration, and social recognition, as well as anxiety and stress-related behaviors. Based on oxytocin administration studies and measurements of peripheral oxytocin levels, it has

Oxytocin Receptors in the Uterus
1990Oxytocin is a nonapeptide that is synthesized by magnocellular neurons of the hypothalamus and, as shown within the past 10 years, by ovarian luteal cells of certain species.1–3 The peptide is similar in structure to arginine vasopressin, or antidiuretic hormone (Fig.
