What Is Oxytocin?
Oxytocin is a disulfide-bridged cyclic nonapeptide synthesized in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary. Preclinical research has examined its activity at the oxytocin receptor (OXTR), a class-A GPCR, in models spanning social cognition, autonomic regulation, and smooth-muscle contractility.
