Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

    In rat hypothalamus, putative vasopressin receptors did not appear to be associated with neurons that carry the body's own oxytocin.

    In plain wordsIn rats, vasopressin receptors did not appear to sit on the cells that make the body's own oxytocin.

    Summary · context
    Using a vasopressin anti-idiotypic antiserum, a dual immunocytochemical labeling procedure has been employed to elucidate the distribution of putative vasopressin receptors in anatomical relation to vasopressin and oxytocin immunoreactive cells in rat brain.

    This result measures the body's own Oxytocin. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
