Results from this study1

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Oxytocin.

  1. 01LabNot a test of Oxytocin aloneIn vitro (cell-free)Mechanism

    In rat testis supernatants, the LHRH-degrading peptidase was inhibited by a group of compounds that included oxytocin.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests with rat testis extract, an enzyme that breaks down LHRH was blocked by several compounds, oxytocin among them.
