Description
Oxytocin | Nonapeptide Neurohormone – Research Peptide
Oxytocin is a nine-amino-acid cyclic neuropeptide containing a disulfide bridge between cysteine residues one and six. It is among the most extensively characterized neuropeptides in behavioral and neuroendocrine research.
Investigations have focused on its interaction with the oxytocin receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor, the downstream phospholipase C signaling that follows, and cross-reactivity at vasopressin receptor subtypes in cell-based models.
Common research applications: neuropeptide receptor binding studies, social-behavior neuroscience models, and GPCR signaling research.
