Oxytocin
Research-Grade Neuropeptide Hormone
Tagline: Social Behavior & Endocrine Research
Product Description
Oxytocin is a cyclic nonapeptide hormone synthesized in the hypothalamus and secreted by the posterior pituitary. It plays a critical role in social bonding, stress modulation, reproduction, and parturition.
Researchers use oxytocin in preclinical and in vitro models to explore its effects on maternal behavior, pair bonding, trust, lactation, uterine contractility, and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. It is also studied for its role in neuropsychiatric and stress-related disorders.
