Description:
Oxytocin is a cyclic nonapeptide (Cys-Tyr-Ile-Gln-Asn-Cys-Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2) synthesized in the hypothalamus. Crucial for neuroendocrine research, Oxytocin activates G-protein coupled oxytocin receptors (OXTR) to regulate uterine smooth muscle contractility, milk ejection signaling, trust-associated social behaviors, and central stress buffering.
