Oxytocin Peptide Vial (5mg) – >99% Purity | Research Use Only

Oxytocin is a naturally occurring nanopeptide hormone composed of 9 amino acids, commonly referred to in scientific literature by its alternative names due to its role in social and reproductive physiology in research models. It is secreted by the hypophysis (pituitary gland) and stored temporarily in the neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary) before being released into the systemic circulation of experimental subjects, where it contributes to multiple neuroendocrine processes.

In light of its biological significance, a synthetic analog of oxytocin has been developed in laboratory settings for use in research studies. This laboratory-synthesized peptide is intended to replicate the biochemical actions of endogenous oxytocin observed in experimental models.

Based on ongoing research investigations, synthetic oxytocin may be studied for its role in facilitating uterine smooth muscle contractions during simulated parturition scenarios in research subjects. It may also be explored for its ability to trigger myoepithelial cell contractions in mammary tissue models, aiding in milk ejection studies. Additionally, oxytocin is under investigation for its influence on social bonding behaviors, affiliative interactions, and attachment-related responses in behavioral research trials using animal models
