  1. 01LabEx vivo tissueActivity measurement

    In rat liver microsomes, oxytocin competitively inhibited specific [3H]AVP binding with a Ki of 41.4 nM, weaker than AVP at 0.19 nM.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on rat liver membranes, oxytocin blocked vasopressin binding, but much more weakly than vasopressin itself.
